Low Energy Production and Pain in Fibromyalgia - Is Your Microcirculation To Blame? - Health Rising
Exercise is highly recommended as an adjunct therapy in fibromyalgia. We’re not talking about pounding the pavement, however. A 2010 review of exercise studies found that ‘slight to moderate’ intensity aerobic exercise sessions done two to three times a week worked best, and that appropriate levels of exercise result in improved […]
At least as early as 2006, researchers suggested that muscle ischemia (low blood flows) both during and after exercise could be causing pain in FM and driving the central sensitization found
Indeed, some research suggests the normal muscle recruitment is not occurring in FM
Problems with the microcirculation could, therefore, be contributing to the aerobic energy problems, pain, and weakness found in FM.
