Fibromyalgia is a type of rheumatism that affects the muscles and the soft tissues where the muscles meet the joint. It is a disease known since ancient times. It is mostly seen in middle-aged women. It is seen in approximately 1 male versus 7-8 females, and fibromyalgia constitutes 25% of all rheumatic diagnoses. The most common symptom is shoulder, neck and back pain. It is seen in pains that are described in various ways such as burning, tenderness, tingling, chills or gnawing pain.
It is thought that very small foci occur in the muscles of patients with fibromyalgia, with impaired blood flow and decreased oxygen levels (hypoxic). Non-inflammatory inflammation (non-infectious inflammation) develops in these areas over time. Patients benefit from correcting the circulation disorder in these areas rather than painkillers. Ozone therapy both regulates the blood supply to these areas and causes red blood cells to release more oxygen to these areas. When the problem of lack of oxygen and lack of blood supply is solved, the non-inflammatory inflammation that causes the main pain disappears and the frequency of patients using painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs approaches almost zero.
Patients who state that they are always tired feel more relaxed, especially after ozone therapy. They may feel energetic and more dynamic. While intravenous treatment, which we call major treatment, can reduce patients' pain systemically, ozone injection into sensitive muscle points increases the blood flow to that area, muscle spasms are relieved, and movement restrictions begin to improve.
Ozone therapy is effective in muscles and joints, waist and neck. It eliminates complaints such as pain, stiffness, numbness and tingling seen in areas such as pain, stiffness, numbness and tingling that restrict physical activity and cause illness psychology. Since the tissues will be more oxygenated, tissue healing increases, and patients can feel well with the detox effect in the tissues and blood.
