Abstract

Fibromyalgia patients suffer from long term and widespread pain. In naturopathic medicine, the use of natural therapies and counseling for deep seated trauma has shown great relief in many patients. Natural recommendations for therapies as well as alternative modalities that have shown great success with patients and potential for further healing will be discussed. Treatment protocols will also be given and explained for physicians to use in their own practice. The root cause of fibromyalgia, which is the relationship with physical and emotional trauma, will be examined and why addressing the trauma is of the utmost importance for treatment. Several case presentations will be given on patients suffering from fibromyalgia and the treatments used during their healing process.
