Background and purpose: Although wet cupping therapy (WCT) is in use, clinical investigations of its efficiency are scarce. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of wet cupping therapy (WCT) on fibromyalgia syndrome Methods: The patients will be randomized into two groups. WCT will be applied once a month to patients in the intervention group while the control group will be on standard therapy for fibromyalgia. An evaluation will be made before treatment and at the 3rd month using the Fibromyalgia Impact Survey (FEA), VAS, and EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D-3L) quality of life scale.
Acceptance of chronic pain is becoming an increasingly important issue in the field of pain management. Many researchers argue that patients who accept pain better function better both physically and psychologically. In many countries, the Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire - 8 (CPAQ-8) has been frequently validated and used to measure the pain acceptance of patients with chronic pain.1 However, the CPAQ-8 has not yet been introduced and validated in Turkey. In this study, we aimed to translate the English version of CPAQ-8 into Turkish, make correct cross-cultural adaptations, and validate the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of CPAQ-8 by testing it in Turkish fibromyalgia patients.
In this prospective, randomized study, our aim was to evaluate the comprehensive multicomponent treatment of fibromyalgia women with telerehabilitation, including "patient education, special psychotherapy/psychosocial intervention, and exercise including relaxation exercises". Does it differ in terms of reduction and functionality?
To improve self-care and therapy adherence by fibromyalgia (FM) patients through a nursing educational intervention. Historic diagnoses of subjects included terms such as "insane", "imaginary ill", "whiny"; as well, their physical conditions were underestimated by their immediate families. All subjects have problematic employment histories which consistently identified their varied employments as physically too demanding. Over time, increased physician- and societal-awareness, resulted in all subjects being diagnosed with FM; consequently, all subjects reported a strong desire to become well-informed about FM and its treatment. Although medical cannabis (MC) was an available therapy, twenty subjects reported that cannabis had never been proposed despite years of ineffective therapies. In this tudy the effects of a educational intervention by expert nurses on fibromyalgia and MC use were investigated.
PROSPER-FM is a multi-center, randomized, non-significant risk device study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two digital therapy smartphone applications in participants with fibromyalgia. Eligible participants are randomized (1:1) to either the Digital Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (Digital ACT) group or the Digital Symptom Tracker group and receive assigned therapy for 12 weeks.
Myofascial pain syndrome is a disease characterized by pain over the trigger point in a taut muscle band. After the correct diagnosis is made, many treatment methods can be applied. One of these treatments is the treatment with prolotherapy injection. Proliferant reveals defense mechanisms remove them and then start the healing process in the damaged area. Usually, dextrose water is used. Lidocaine is an anesthetic. With lidocaine injection, the passage of painful stimuli is prevented and the opioid system is activated. The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of prolotherapy and lidocaine treatment in the myofascial pain syndrome.
This study focusing on sound therapy in patients with fibromyalgia is a single-centre, prospective, randomized study which evaluates the improvement or not of painful symptoms following relaxation sessions with sound therapy.
To examine whether the addition of tzabar fruit twice a day to a routine daily nutrition regime will: A- Reduce symptoms of fatigue, pain and depression in FM patients B. Have positive influence on quality of life
Non-pharmaceutical therapies, such as acupuncture, hydrotherapy, and meditative exercises (such as Qigong (including Tai Chi and Ba-Duan-Jin), have been shown to reduce pain and improve physical function. The management recommendations of fibromyalgia issued by the European Union, Canada, Germany and Israel have all affirmed the "first-line" role of Non-pharmaceutical therapy. Because of its good efficacy and safety, acupuncture therapy has been recommended in the management guidelines and has broad application prospects. Warm acupuncture is a therapy combining acupuncture and moxibustion, which is widely used in the treatment of various painful diseases in China, especially for cold-sensitive patients . This study aims to observe the safety and effectiveness of warm acupuncture in the treatment of cold-sensitive fibromyalgia patients, in order to provide a more alternative non-drug therapy for this particular type of patients with fibromyalgia .
