Fibromyalgia - using red light therapy to help provide relief from pain and discomfort

Fibromyalgia is a medical condition characterised by chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain and a heightened pain response to pressure.

It is believed that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain and spinal cord process painful and non-painful signals.

Irrespective of its cause, an infection can result in acute pain or even chronic pain, which can lead to frustration and depression. While there are various medicines used to treat the root cause of the infection, a Photizo Pain Relief device can aid in reducing the level of pain experienced.

It is not only painful but also results in fatigue and poor sleep quality, possibly affecting your ability to function at home or on the job. The frustration of dealing with an often-misunderstood condition also can result in depression and health-related anxiety.
