Fibromyalgia
Neurobiofeedback(sm) Training for Fibromyalgia
Information on how Neurobiofeedback can
help with Fibromyalgia is coming soon. If you would like more information
at this time, please visit some of our links below. You may also call
The Institute in Troy, Michigan and talk with Donald E. Deering. He
will be able to speak with you more about how this may be treated.
NOTE: We will also have the most current
information available in the field of Neurofeedback as reported by one
of the leading experts in the area of Fibromyalgia. Dr. Stuart Donaldson
out of Calgary, Canada recently reported important findings about the
indentification and potential treatment of Fibromyalgia. At the 2001
Futurehealth Winter Brain Conference (February 2-6), Dr. Donaldson presented
research that was very promising for those suffering from Fibromyalgia.
We will be sure to include this information
as soon as it becomes available in published print. Until then, we will
be adding basic information about Fibromyalgia and how Neurobiofeedback(sm)
may be able to alleiviate the symptoms associated with it.
A site built with care: up-to-date news,
archives, excellent links, support groups, chat rooms, an events page,
a bulletin board of helpful items for sale or barter, contests, links
to personal homepages, even "fibro-friendly" recipes - it's all here.
A survivors' club. It's personal and
optimistic, with a sense of humor. Has all the standard medical info,
a book list, and a guestbook where you can reply to the entries.
Different kinds of support groups (including
for teens and loved ones). Along with stories and poems, this site
has considerable medical information and good articles about fibromyalgia.
Excellent links and bookstore. Encouraging words from the creators
are a plus.
Has detailed symptom explanations not
found on most sites. Nice extras, such as a scale for measuring pain.
There's quick access to an online support group and fibromyalgia books
sold by amazon.com. This site also covers chronic myofascial pain
syndrome (MPS).
Has many features: mailing list, chats,
penpals, books, and a handy link to search for doctors. Also has lots
of ads. The articles and links are decent, but medical information
is thin. Member of WebRing, a useful navigational tool for tying together
related websites (here, of course, fibromyalgia sites).
Emphasis on treatment in Canada. Has
all the basics: info, articles, links, mailing list, a support group.
Not found on other sites is a list of speakers. Basic information
also in French.
The site is a little confusing. Articles
are new, which not every site can boast of, and there are links for
conferences and advocacy. There's also a list of doctors, but it seems
to be incomplete. This site has resources for chronic fatigue syndrome,
multiple chemical sensitivity, and Gulf War syndrome, as well as fibromyalgia.
Good information, but not up to date.
For both fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).
Has German and Turkish language information.
It's in English too, but for English speakers there are many alternative
sites.
Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome
(CFS) are both covered here. One of the best sets of medical articles
is here, as well as links to products and treatments you can purchase
from PainReliever.com. Cartoons lighten the mood. The design sometimes
deters swift navigation.
ArthritisWebSite gave this their seal
of approval. As the website of an institution, this site contains
a mission statement, grant applications and a list of projects being
funded. Best to go elsewhere for medical information and links.
There is information in Spanish. Audiotapes
available. You can also join and receive a newsletter. This site could
be useful if you live in the Washington area.
More oriented toward disability links
than fibromyalgia patients.
A personal homepage with a focus on alternative
medicine. Part of the site is under construction, so you may want
to check the site periodically for updates. It may be most helpful
for sufferers of vulvodynia.
This is a personal homepage, and headquarters
of a support group in Iowa. There is a good list of support groups
in each state too. There are pop-up ads every time you go to a new
page.
Bottom line: similar to other sites that
provide more information.
For both fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue
syndrome. Very well organized, but largely consists of information
for sale. Run by Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, a physician who specializes
in holistic medicine.
Lots on the exercise and diet program
that the site-creator follows. Not much medical information. However,
if it worked for this person, who are we to say different.
Part of Health World Online, hence not
dedicated strictly to fibromyalgia. A few good articles. Much better
as an all-around medical site.
