An Effective, Holistic Approach to Overcoming Fibromyalgia

If you suffer from fibromyalgia, chronic pain, fatigue, sleeplessness, and other symptoms are part of your everyday life. Your symptoms take over your life, and for some, even threaten your home life and job.  Adding to this frustration, the exact root and cure for fibromyalgia continue to elude the medical community. Fortunately, many patients are discovering that recovery from fibromyalgia is possible with a natural, holistic approach to overall health.

More commonly diagnosed in women than men, fibromyalgia is a chronic pain condition that affects the upper and lower, left and right parts of the body. In addition to varying levels of pain in certain “tender points” throughout the body, patients often experience a wide range of symptoms, from anxiety and depression to sleeplessness. Research has shown that physical, emotional and environmental stressors can impact the severity of these troublesome symptoms.

For fibromyalgia sufferers, the questions regarding treatment far outweigh any definitive answers. Medications now prescribed by the traditional medical community have received mixed reviews and often present undesirable side effects. In my experience, I’ve found that those suffering from fibromyalgia can make tremendous strides in getting to the source of their pain and discomfort through a natural, holistic healing approach.

At Sheehan Natural Health Improvement Center, our programs are focused on what nutritional imbalances, hidden toxicities, and underlying immune system challenges are causing your symptoms. We use orthopedic and neurological testing, Functional Medicine, and Nutrition Response Testing zero in on these imbalances.  Based on this insight, we can design a holistic healing approach customized to work for your unique body type for better results. Your plan may include a customized diet, detoxification, massage, natural supplements and/or chiropractic adjustments. Time and time again, we see clients with fibromyalgia go from a life of pain and fatigue to a life of renewed energy and relief when they follow our natural approach to healing.

“I suffered from fibromyalgia which caused me to retire from my job as a hairdresser 10 years earlier than I would have normally.  After starting the Nutrition Response Testing program, my symptoms disappeared dramatically.  I feel better than I have in more than a decade.  Big bonus: I lost over 25 pounds!”-M.G

Dr. Sheehan says “Fibromyalgia is nothing but an amalgamation of food allergies, immune system challenges, varying toxicities, and vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  Handle these, and fibromyalgia is handled quickly.”
