The Fibromyalgia Center @ Leonardi Family Chiropractic utilizes a unique six step approach developed by Doctor Leonardi to specifically treat the needs of Fibromyalgia Syndrome patients.
Care starts with a complete history, physical, orthopedic, neurological and chiropractic examination. The purpose of this thorough evaluation is to determine whether your Fibromyalgia is the primary problem, or secondary to some other undiagnosed condition.
Once it is determined if you are suffering from primary or secondary Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Doctor Leonardi will design a treatment plan to treat your specific condition. This treatment plan will include several or all of the six steps Doctor Leonardi has developed in his ten plus years of treating and lecturing about Fibromyalgia Syndrome.
Dr. Leonardi's six step approach:
I - Low and/or no force Chiropractic Manipulation. Through his experience Doctor Leonardi has noted that many of his Fibromyalgia patients do not tolerate the traditional Chiropractic adjustment. Doctor Leonardi has pooled together the most gentle Chiropractic Manipulations to effectively treat you, the Fibromyalgia sufferer.
II - Specific Myofascial Release Techniques that address tender points unique to Fibromyalgia patients. As most of you know, tender points are NOT trigger points. Dr. Leonardi utilizes the proper myofascial technique to address your specific pain.
III - An exercise program personalized to your specific needs and abilities. Exercise is a key component to treating Fibromyalgia. Doctor Leonardi uses his vast experience with athletes, athletics and Fibromyalgia patients to specifically design a complete program to assist you in overcoming the fatigue and pain associated with Fibromyalgia Syndrome.
IV - Naturally addressing the disturbances in the sleep cycle.
V- Life style modifications intended to assist you in "de-stressing" your life.
VI - Diet modification designed to help you learn the proper foods that may alleviate your symptoms.
