Meditation helps fibromyalgia pain
Research now shows that meditation can help ease the depression associated with and the pain of fibromyalgia a condition marked by chronic joint and muscle pain, fatigue, and, in some cases, poor memory and thinking. While meditation doesn’t make the pain disappear, it appears to help patients refocus their attention and feel better.
Fibromyalgia is difficult to treat. Doctors normally recommend a combination of exercise and psychosocial interventions, such as learning how to relax. In addition, medications like antidepressants, anti-inflammatories and sleeping pills are often prescribed. The cause of fibromyalgia is unclear, but symptoms often begin after a traumatic experience and worsen during times of stress, said Sandy Sephton, a research psychologist at the University of Louisville. Fibromyalgia effects up to 4 percent of the population of the United States and other industrialized countries.
