Efficacy of nonpharmacological interventions for individual features of fibromyalgia

fibromyalgia

Nonpharmacological interventions are recommended as first-line treatment of fibromyalgia. However, which interventions are effective for the different symptoms is not well understood. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of nonpharmacological interventions on symptoms and disease-specific quality of life. The findings of this study suggest that nonpharmacological interventions for fibromyalgia should be individualised according to the predominant symptom.
