Causes of Fibromyalgia - Knowing a True Cause Can Help Bring True Relief

Expert Author Lisa Klein Weber

A lot of people come to me wanting to know "why - what exactly was the cause of my fibromyalgia?" I think this is an incredibly smart question, because once you know the true cause, you can find some real relief.

In my opinion, there are many things that cause fibromyalgia, and none of them are simple. However, one thing that I believe is present in every single person with fibromyalgia is stress chemicals and metabolic wastes stuck in the tissues.

When I say tissues, I don't actually mean muscles, like most people would think - they have muscle pain, they think it's actually being caused by the muscles. I think it is being created in and caused by the fascia.

Fascia is a thin covering that covers every muscle, muscle fiber, nerve, organ, tendon, and ligament in the body. It's everywhere.

When it is full of stress chemicals and maybe scar tissue and is chronically shortened, kinked, and restricted, it causes major pain. This is what is behind both the pain and the fatigue of fibromyalgia.

So how did this get started? In most people, extreme emotional states combined with a physical and/or mental exhaustion can really be the kicker that can carry everyday aches and pains into fibromyalgia - and once it crosses over into fibromyalgia, it's really hard to go back again.

So what's the cure? There are many ways to fix fibromyalgia, in my opinion, but none of them are quick or simple. Guaifenesin is one way, restorative stretching is another, and self-trigger point therapy is another. Combine any or all of these with some emotional healing and I believe most people can find their way out of fibromyalgia.

This may not seem like any cause you've ever heard of, or any cure you've ever heard of, but these things are what have made all the difference for me in life. I would like to help you find relief from fibromyalgia too.
