Twenty-one rheumatology patients aged 25-70 suffering from fibromyalgia were studied to demonstrate chiropractic’s effect on this condition.

Chiropractic treatment consisted of 4 weeks of treatment. The results revealed that chiropractic management improved patients’ cervical and lumbar ranges of motion, straight leg raise and reported pain levels. These chances were judged to be clinically important with the confines of the sample only.

In another study, 538 fibromyalgia patients revealed that chiropractors were one of the more common health care professionals visited by fibromyalgia patients.
