Summary

the study was done to investigate the effect of Electrical Muscle Stimulation as muscle strengthening versus the effect of myofascial releasing on quality of life in female fibromyalgia patients while following Mediterranean diet.

Conditions

  • Electric Stimulation
  • Myofascial Release
  • Fibromyalgia

Interventions

DEVICE

Electrical myostimulation

Electrical myostimulation in form of suit as in fig. Blue lines demonstrate areas of electrodes inside suit. twenty females will receive EMS session per week ( 20mins / week ) and following healthy diet for 6 weeks . 20 min = 1 min warm up, 6min upper body training, 6min lower body training, 6min core training, 1 min cooling down.

DEVICE

Electronic cupping

Twenty females will undergo two weekly myofascial release sessions and a healthy diet for six weeks, using electronic cupping to ensure equal pressure on tender points.

OTHER

healthy diet

The MedDiet diet focuses on high fat intake, primarily from extra-virgin olive oil, in vegetable dishes, and a high consumption of low-glycemic index carbohydrates like wholegrain cereals, legumes, nuts, fruits, and vegetables. Moderate to high fish consumption is also encouraged, with moderate to small amounts of poultry and dairy products. Red meat and meat products are limited or avoided.
