Red Light Therapy for Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain syndrome characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, sleep disturbance, and cognitive dysfunction. It involves central sensitization and altered pain processing.
Prevalence: Affects 2-4% of the population, predominantly women
How Red Light Therapy Helps
PBM modulates central sensitization, reduces inflammatory markers, improves mitochondrial function in muscle tissue, and may improve sleep quality. Both targeted tender point treatment and full-body approaches show benefit.
