“I’m Tired of Hurting Everywhere”—You’re Heard Here

Living with fibromyalgia can feel like walking through a fog—physically and mentally. We hear stories like these every day:

  • Widespread aching pain that shifts from neck and shoulders to hips, back, or legs, often worse with stress or weather changes
  • Morning stiffness that makes those first minutes feel heavy and awkward
    Fatigue that doesn’t match your activity, or a crash after doing too much on a good day
  • Sleep that doesn’t restore, frequent wake-ups, or waking already exhausted
  • Headaches, jaw tension, or facial pain layered on top of everything else
  • Brain fog—trouble focusing, word-finding, or remembering simple tasks
  • Sensory sensitivity to noise, light, touch, or temperature
  • Anxiety about flares—the fear that today’s progress might mean tomorrow’s setback

You deserve care that believes you, supports you, and helps you feel more in control. As your chiropractor for fibromyalgia, we’ll start by listening—then build a plan that respects your body’s limits while helping you reclaim steady ground.

What Our Patients Have to Say

Our Care Philosophy: Gentle, Personalized, and Pacing-Friendly

Every person with fibromyalgia is unique. Your sensitivities, stressors, sleep, and schedule all matter. We design care that adapts to your day-to-day reality rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all plan.

What Your First Visits Look Like:

Listen & map your story

We learn your symptom patterns, triggers, goals, and non-negotiables.

Gentle exam

We assess mobility, tender areas, breathing mechanics, posture, and how your nervous system responds to light movement—always at your pace.

Collaborative plan

We outline a step-by-step approach that balances comfort with progress, explaining how and why each piece helps.

Why See a Chiropractor for Fibromyalgia?

Because calming pain requires more than masking symptoms. Fibromyalgia involves a sensitive nervous system that amplifies pain signals. Hands-on, gentle care and movement re-education can lower that volume, improve motion, and help your body trust movement again. A skilled fibromyalgia chiropractor blends low-force manual therapy, soft-tissue work, graded activity, and simple daily strategies to reduce flare frequency and intensity—without heavy side effects.

What meaningful improvement can look like:

  • Quieter, more predictable pain with fewer spikes and gentler flares
  • Better sleep quality from positions and routines that actually help
  • Steadier energy by pacing activity and avoiding boom-and-bust cycles
  • More comfortable movement in the neck, back, hips, and shoulders
  • A clear toolkit for tough days—so you’re not starting from zero during a flare

We don’t promise quick fixes or cures. We focus on real, sustainable gains that add up.

Fibromyalgia Symptoms We See—and Support—Every Day

How Chiropractic Fits into a Whole-Person Fibromyalgia Plan

Think of your care like a three-legged stool: calm the system, move comfortably, protect energy. Chiropractic care for fibromyalgia primarily helps the first two—down-regulating protective muscle tone and improving motion so daily activities cost less energy. Then, with pacing, sleep hygiene, nutrition basics, and stress tools, you get a steadier foundation to live your life.

We’ll help you:

  • Identify positions of relief for work, rest, and sleep
  • Use micro-breaks that actually reset your body (not just pause your task)
  • Choose movement snacks that lubricate joints and calm the nervous system

Build a personal flare plan: first 10 minutes, next 24 hours, and how to resume safely

What We Use

There’s no one-size-fits-all neck. Your plan is custom—built around your body, lifestyle, and goals.

Low-Force Joint Techniques

Gentle spinal and extremity mobilization/adjustments to improve glide and reduce protective guarding—without forcing motion or provoking flares.

Soft-Tissue & Myofascial Care

Light, targeted methods to ease muscle tension and tender bands (neck/shoulders, mid-back, hips, glutes, forearms/calves). Pressure is calibrated to your comfort every visit.

Breath & Nervous System Down-Shift

Simple, science-backed breathing drills and vagal-tone strategies that help your body leave threat mode and settle toward recovery.

Graded Movement & Micro-Strength

Tiny, tolerable exercises that improve joint nourishment, circulation, and stability—think 30–90 seconds at a time—so progress doesn’t trigger payback.

Posture, Pillow, and Sleep Setups

Practical adjustments to your workspace and bedtime routine that reduce night pain and morning stiffness.

Pacing, Planning, and Flare Playbooks

Clear guidelines for activity dosing, rest breaks, and what to do first when a flare starts (positions, breath, heat/ice, and movement options).

Coordination with Your Care Team

We collaborate with your MD, PT, counselor, massage therapist, or sleep specialist as desired. You’re the center; we’re the support.

01
Phase 1: Settle & Stabilize (Weeks 1–2)

Goal: reduce overwhelm. We use low-force care, breath work, gentle mobility, and simple sleep strategies. You’ll leave with a short, confidence-building routine for home—measured in minutes, not hours.

02
Phase 2: Restore Comfortable Motion (Weeks 3–6)

Goal: expand what feels safe. We progress light mobility for neck, hips, and thoracic spine, add micro-strength for shoulder blades and hips, and refine pacing to prevent crashes.

03
Phase 3: Build Capacity—Without Payback (Weeks 7–10)

Goal: cultivate resilience. We slowly increase time under tension and add balance work, neighborhood walks, or low-impact cardio—always at a level your body can absorb.

04
Phase 4: Live Your Plan (Weeks 11–16 and beyond)

Goal: keep your wins. We craft a minimal-effort maintenance routine, seasonal flare strategies, and check-in options so you stay supported—without constant appointments.

FAQs

Real Questions, Honest Answers

Yes. We start with the gentlest options and adjust in real time. Your comfort is the compass. If something ramps symptoms, we pivot immediately—no pushing through pain.

Many patients report better sleep when neck/shoulder tension eases and they learn positions of relief. We’ll also share simple wind-down and pillow strategies that often make nights kinder.

That boom-and-bust cycle is common. We’ll teach pacing (think right-sized activity) and micro-recovery breaks so wins don’t boomerang into setbacks.

Movement acts like a natural pain modulator when dosed correctly. We use ultra-light, tolerable drills—seconds at a time—then build gradually so your system learns movement is safe again.

We adapt visit by visit. On tender days we favor calming techniques; on steadier days we layer gentle progress. Your plan is flexible by design.

Typically not for fibromyalgia alone. If your history suggests another condition—or imaging would change care—we’ll coordinate promptly with your physician.

Absolutely. Many people do best with a team approach. We’re happy to share notes and align strategies.

Most plans cover chiropractic services. We verify benefits up front and discuss clear, affordable options if you’re paying privately.

Some feel a sense of ease and better sleep within a few visits; others notice gradual steadiness over several weeks. We’ll set milestones beyond pain alone—sleep quality, fewer spikes, more doable days—so progress is visible.

No. Your pain is real. Fibromyalgia involves how the nervous system processes input. Validating your experience and calming that system is central to care.

Pick one position of relief (we’ll show you), two minutes of breathing, and 1–2 gentle mobility drills. Keep it light. Tomorrow, add a 5–10 minute walk or a few micro-strength reps if you feel up to it.
