“Fibromyalgia” is an incurable chronic pain condition that affects over 3.5 million people in the United States, and up to 3,500 families in Cherry Hill alone. Its symptoms mimic those of an arthritis, usually widespread pain and stiffness in the joints and muscles. Many of my patients come in complaining of such pain.

It is difficult to diagnose Fibromyalgia because unlike Arthritis, Fibromyalgia symptoms do not show up on X-rays or blood tests. This can be frustrating and as such, many folks may go untreated and even ignored, leaving them to have to combat this unexplainable pain on their own. Other folks will suffer until the pain is so severe that they are coerced into using “prescription” pain medication. Unfortunately, “if” pain medication helps at all, it is only disguising the condition, not counteracting it.

After studying Fibromyalgia Syndrome for some time, I have designed a fairly successful and drug-free “Fibromyalgia Pain Management Program.” I first like to meet with an individual for an initial evaluation. After reviewing my findings, I create a multifaceted regimen aimed at dramatically reducing, as well as preventing the pain associated with this chronic condition. Additionally, the progress of each individual is supervised by me on a weekly basis.
