Fibromyalgia can be a tough diagnosis to live with.
Not only can its effects be mentally and physically challenging, but getting friends, family, co-workers and even health and medical professionals to validate your experiences can be an even greater challenge again.
In my clinical experience as a Physiotherapist, as someone who has treated Fibro for years, we can do so much better.
And all with just a small change of perspective.
We need to stop thinking of Fibromyalgia as a musculoskeletal issue. Yes, it comes with an array of musculoskeletal challenges, which are all completely valid and real. But there's more to it than this.
In this video, I break down how I think we need to think of Fibromyalgia, and what this means for those with the diagnosis.
I hope to give some practical advice to reshape your understanding of what Fibro is, how it develops, and help you regain some control over your long-term prognosis.
