Summary

Neural therapy is a regulation therapy that tries to correct this underlying autonomic dysfunction. In neural therapy; local painful areas, trigger points and symptomatic segments are included in the injection using local anesthetics and the underlying disruptive areas are investigated and treated. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of neural therapy in fibromyalgia syndrome which is thought to have a neuroendocrine dysregulation disorder.

Conditions

  • Fibromyalgia

Interventions

PROCEDURE

neural therapy

Intracutaneous quaddle injections were performed using 1% lidocaine preparation as a local anesthetic for local application to painful points with palpation on the back and shoulders and for the segmental application, 2 cm lateral to the midline of the C1-T5 vertebrae and on spinous processes.

DEVICE

Physical Therapy

Physical therapy program was consist of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation- TENS (30-40 Hz, 20 minutes), hotpack (20 minutes) and continuous ultrasound (1mHz, 1.5w / cm2, 10 minutes) on painful points with palpation on the back and shoulders.
