Yoga for fibromyalgia
Mindful movement as a way out of pain memory
Fibromyalgia is considered one of the most complex and often misunderstood pain disorders. Those affected suffer from chronic, widespread pain, accompanied by exhaustion, sleep disorders, concentration problems and often depressive moods. While medication only helps to a limited extent, it has been shown that exercise in combination with relaxation can be a key to relief - especially if it is mindful, gentle and individually tailored. This is exactly where yoga unfolds its special effect.
