Experience the Nucca Difference

 

"I was involved in a gymnastic accident when I was a teenager. By the time I was introduced to the NUCCA chiropractic method, I had 10–15 years of pain. I also had developed all the typical symptoms of Fibromyalgia, including headaches for a week at a time that would not respond to medication, cognitive processing problems and fatigue. After just one adjustment I began to understand the power of NUCCA and Dr. Friedman's expertise. I am headache free under his care, the tingling in my hands and arms is gone and my TMJ problems are gone. I am sleeping better and the quality of life is much better. There are a lot of options out there that do not work, but this is one that worked for me." DS.

You hurt all over, and you frequently feel exhausted. Even after numerous tests, your doctor can't seem to find anything specifically wrong with you. If this sounds familiar, you may have fibromyalgia.

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by fatigue, widespread pain in your muscles, ligaments and tendons, and multiple tender points – places on your body where slight pressure causes pain. Fibromyalgia is more common in women than in men.

The specific cause of fibromyalgia is unknown. However, Fibromyalgia doctors believe a number of factors may contribute. These factors from the Mayo Clinic include:

  • Injury
    An injury or trauma, particularly in the upper spinal region, may trigger the development of fibromyalgia in some people.
  • Changes in muscle metabolism
    For example, deconditioning and decreased blood flow may contribute to decreased strength and fatigue.
  • Abnormalities of the autonomic (sympathetic) nervous system
    Your autonomic nervous system is divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.

The Medical Approach

In general, Medical Doctors options for treatment are with a combination of medication and self-care. The emphasis of fibromyalgia doctors is on minimizing symptoms. They include pain killers, antidepressants, and muscle relaxers that temporarily minimize the symptoms. Biofeedback and self-relaxation techniques are also suggested.
