Summary

This is a randomized double-blind crossover study. The investigators applied ELF with a device named "LIMFA Therapy®" to 48 fibromyalgic patients, assigned in two groups (true-sham and sham-true). Fibromyalgia severity was assessed with the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), quality of sleep with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire and global quality of life with Short Form-12 of Physical and Mental Health Summary (SF-12) questionnaire.
