Chronic Pain Relief Treatment and Management
Chronic pain does not just go away by itself. A person suffering from this has to feel the pain consistently over significant amounts of time. Right from when they wake up in the morning, through when they go around performing their daily duties, and even at nights – the pain just does not seem to recede. Not only can such consistent discomfort work to elevate stress levels and cause depression the lack of sleep it often causes can do serious damage to health as well. Fibromyalgia, or Chronic Myofascial Pain Syndrome, is one such cause that can cause chronic pain in an individual.
Before you can undergo massage therapy, your therapist might ask for your detailed medical history, in a better effort to understand your condition. Remember that there is nothing to hide from them – with the right information, they can better gauge what kind of therapy would suit you the best. A Certified Massage Therapist is trained to identify locations which are causing more pain, and then get massages in an effort to ease that discomfort. Knowing that it is usually CMPS patients who seek relief from chronic pain, it helps to understand what kind of treatments they can undergo to make the pain go away. A normal session with patient suffering from this syndrome usually lasts between thirty minutes to an hour. It also tends to involve the use of deeper pressure. The most common areas where CMPS patients suffer from pain are around the joints. A licensed massage therapist can help to relieve you from this pain and leave you feeling relaxed. Lymphatic Drainage Massage Clinic is a good place to check out if you want to get rid of the pain associated with having CMPS.
Fibromyalgia Pain Treatment
If the therapist is dealing with someone suffering from fibromyalgia however, then the treatment changes slightly. The focus now is not to apply pressure on the skin, but rather to induce blood flow in the body. By working on a superficial basis, across the body – the blood flow is stimulated and the patient is left feeling stress free and relaxed. You cannot know from the first session itself whether the treatment from a licensed massage therapist is having any effect on you or not. You would need at least five or six sessions to fully understand how the treatment is affecting your body. If a particular method is not working, then it is always possible to change the treatment, and try different techniques till you find something that is suitable.
You will also need to make your massage therapist aware of the medications you are using. Almost everyone with Fibromyalgia as well as CMPS will be taking different medications, and letting your Licensed Massage Therapist know will help them better understand your condition and how you are dealing with it. That way they can ensure that the medication and the massage therapy do not in any way clash with each other or affect each other. Although massage therapy cannot work to remove the pain forever, it can still give you relief for weeks to come.
