Fibromyalgia and FSM Therapy:
A Science-Based Approach to Pain Relief
Fibromyalgia is a complex, chronic condition marked by widespread aching and chronic pain in all four quadrants of the body; cognitive disturbances (“fibro fog”), anxiety, dizziness, headaches, depression, vision problems, feeling cold, multiple chemical sensitivities, problems urinating, menstrual pain, morning muscle stiffness, chronic non-restorative sleep (waking every 90-120 minutes), fatigue, lack of stamina, limited exercise tolerance, and heightened sensitivity to pressure and touch, lasting a minimum of 3 months or more.
​
Current research describes it as a neuroendocrine immune condition characterised by central sensitisation and altered pain processing.
Affecting an estimated 2–4% of the population—mostly women—it often arises after physical trauma, infections, or periods of intense stress. Despite its prevalence, effective treatment remains elusive for many, and conventional medications frequently fall short.
A Natural Remedy for Fibromyglia
Targeting Inflammation and Nerve Dysfunction
A growing body of evidence suggests that fibromyalgia may involve central sensitization—a state where the nervous system becomes hyper-reactive to stimuli—and neuroinflammation, particularly in those with trauma-associated onset. FSM has demonstrated the ability to reduce key pain mediators like inflammatory cytokines like IL-1, IL-6, TNF-alpha, and substance P, while simultaneously increasing endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers.
How does FSM compare to other Treatments?
Unlike TENS, Shock Wave Therapy and or other high-amperage devices that seek to block pain at the nerve level, FSM work at a cellular level, influencing ion channel function, calcium homeostasis, and ATP synthesis—key elements in reducing pain sensitivity and encouraging tissue regeneration. Treatment with FSM is not just about symptom management, it is about creating lasting change, healing, regenerating tissues, and restoring function.
Why Choose FSM for Fibromyalgia?
· Non-pharmacological: FSM offers relief without the side effects of medications.
· Customizable: Practitioners can tailor frequency pairs to match specific symptoms and body areas.
· Fast-acting and long-lasting: Many patients feel relief within the first few sessions.
Low risk and painless: The microcurrents are sub-sensory and typically produce no discomfort.
Is FSM right for you?
FSM has shown the greatest benefit in fibromyalgia patients whose symptoms are linked to spine trauma or injury. If you’ve tried conventional treatments with limited success, FSM may offer a scientifically grounded and effective alternative. Many patients experience not only pain relief but improved sleep, mood, and overall function.

Dr McMakin Talks about Fibromyalgia & FSM
Dr. Carolyn McMakin explains that fibromyalgia affects multiple systems in the body, leading to widespread pain, fatigue, and a host of other symptoms. She highlights that fibromyalgia is not just a pain disorder but a condition that disrupts the nervous system, immune system, and even cellular energy production, making people feel consistently unwell.... and how FSM helps with all of this.​​​​
