Clinical Trial Summary

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of infrared radiation in improving the various symptoms of fibromyalgia syndrome, by using a long-sleeved white shirt impregnated with a long-infrared irradiating bioceramic, as well as the adherence to it and its applicability in daily routines. A prospective, experimental, randomized, and double-blind study was carried. The study was implemented over 7 months, with a total of 5 visits for each patient. Participants were randomly allocated in experimental or control group. Those included in the experimental group received a shirt impregnated with ceramic emitting long infrared waves while participants in the placebo group received an exactly looking shirt, but not impregnated with ceramic emitting long infrared waves. Each visit comprised clinical evaluation and self-report scales filling (WPS, SS and FIQR scales).
