Fibromyalgia And The MindBodySpirit Connection: 7 Steps For Living A Healthy Life With Widespread Muscular Pain And Fatigue

The Story

Do you know that fibromyalgia ('fi-bro-my-al'-jah') affects 10 times more women than men? Do you also know that fibromyalgia is almost always accompanied with fatigue and difficulty sleeping? And do you know that 30 - 70% of fibromyalgia sufferers also have irritable bowel syndrome and vice versa? Fibromyalgia and the MindBodySpirit Connection, by William B. Salt II, M.D., and Edwin H. Season, M.D., helps people who suffer with fibromyalgia and those who also have arthritis. This patient-centered book presents a 7-step plan which empowers sufferers to focus on the power of the mind rather than on the pain of the body in order to reclaim health and feel better than ever before! It is the only book on fibromyalgia to describe a mind, body, spirit approach within a framework of the latest, state-of-the art scientific methodology. Drs. Salt and Season will walk you through the 7 steps, from understanding the connection of your mind, body, and spirit, learning about fibromyalgia and myofascial pain, healing with diagnosis and education, making 'the connection,' emphasizing self-care and wellness, managing your fibromyalgia, and ending with taking action if symptoms persist. As expressed by Dr. Salt, 'We believe symptoms can open the door to healing and a new way of living.'
