Not only is it extremely difficult to diagnose but many Western Medical Physicians have a difficult time treating sufferers with traditional medical treatments. As such, many CFS and Fibromyalgia suffers, seek alternative treatments in order to relieve symptoms. In this article, we will discuss the most popular alternative treatment methods and how you can use them to treat and beat Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndromes once and for all.

Acupuncture: It is a treatment method that uses extremely fine metallic needles in specific points of your body or “acupoints”. These needles are relatively painless and are inserted into your body and remain there for up to 15 minutes. Although it is not certain how this treatment works, many medical professionals believe that acupuncture relieves pain by blocking the pathways that send painful signals through our bodies and may also increase endorphins (group of peptide hormones that bind to opiate receptors found in the brain). In addition, some professionals believe that acupuncture unblocks “chi or life forces” that drive our emotions and physical body. Either way, acupuncture has been known to be an effective method for treating and beating your CFS and Fibromyalgia symptoms.

Acupressure: This treatment is similar to acupuncture and also focuses on unblocking “energy pathways”. However, during acupressure, needles are not used, instead your therapist uses her fingers, hands, knuckles and palms to unblock the “energy pathways”. The patient, in turn, is then thought to experience a decrease in painful symptoms and more energy.

That is, with biofeedback, you learn how to consciously control your involuntary responses such as heart rate, brain waves, and muscle contractions so that your body remains at a relaxed state. During a session, a trained therapist electronically monitors your involuntary functions and you receive feedback in the form of a visual, auditory, or tactile signal (lights or beeps). With practice, you learn how to reduce the “feedback or amount of lights and beeps” and relax your body’s electrical impulses in order to reduce your symptoms.

In essence, your professional will gently palpate your bones to restore a healthy cranial rhythmic impulse for optimal health.
