Manage Your Fibromyalgia Symptoms At Home

EXERCISE REGULARLY

As a patient suffering from fibromyalgia, you’re likely aware of this tip already. However, the importance of exercising regularly enough can’t be stressed enough. While adults should have at least 2 1/2 hours of exercise each day, it is recommended that children receive at least 60 minutes of physical activity per day. In fact, many studies show that out of all the do-it-yourself treatments for fibromyalgia, cardiovascular exercises are proven to be one of the most beneficial treatments in reducing pain and other symptoms associated with the condition. If you are unsure of what exercises you could be doing, it’s best to work with a physical therapist to develop an exercise program that works for you.

BE VIGILANT ABOUT SWEAT

Whether you’re sweating as a result of exercising, or for other reasons, you should always be vigilant about sweat if you suffer from fibromyalgia. It’s because sweat may cause you to experience chills, which in turn, may cause your fibromyalgia symptoms to worsen or flare up. That’s why it’s recommended to blot off any perspiration you may have and change into dry clothes immediately if you ever find yourself covered in sweat.

AVOID ALCOHOL

Many studies have shown that fibromyalgia and alcohol are not a good mix. Not only can your alcohol intake dilate blood vessels and cause heat loss, alcohol is also a known irritant that can cause inflammation in your body– a key cause for many fibromyalgia symptoms. Additionally, alcohol is also said to weaken your immune system which in turn diminishes your body’s ability to detoxify itself efficiently. Avoid the sudden onset of your symptoms by simply avoiding alcohol.

COLD LASER LLLT DEVICES

While exercising, being vigilant about sweat and avoiding alcohol will help patients with fibromyalgia work towards maintaining a better lifestyle and lessen symptoms, sometimes patients simply want a quick fix to remedy the excruciating pain. Luckily, the LaserTRX does just that.

The LaserTRX is a LLLT laser therapy device for fibromyalgia which helps to relieve pain, aches, and discomfort in patients. Unlike over the counter pain relievers which can pose health risks over long-term usage, the HandyRx is a preferred pain management solution that is both safe and effective to use. Meticulously designed with patients in mind, the LaserTRX is perfect for use at home and on the go — that means you can treat your symptoms anytime, anywhere.

Combining the power of low level pulsed infrared lasers with red light energies and static magnetic energy, the small and mobile device works to help reduce inflammation and/or muscle stiffness caused by fibromyalgia. Used to promote muscle relaxation and therapeutic discomfort management, the LaserTRX starts at just $985 for a lifetime of relief.
