Conditions we treat

Fibromyalgia

Widespread pain, constant tiredness and sleep that doesn't rest: fibromyalgia is real, has a name and has proper care.

What it is

Fibromyalgia is a widespread chronic pain syndrome, usually accompanied by fatigue, non-restorative sleep, memory and concentration changes and heightened pain sensitivity. It mainly affects women and often takes years to be correctly diagnosed.

Because it involves several body systems, effective care usually combines approaches: medication, adapted physical activity, sleep hygiene and emotional health.

Signs it may be time to seek an assessment

How the assessment works

The consultation starts from your story: how long the pain has existed, how you sleep, your energy levels and what has been tried. The goal is a realistic plan, with small milestones and continuous follow-up.

In selected cases, cannabinoids may be considered within that plan, in line with Anvisa regulation and with periodic reassessment of your response.

Frequently asked questions

Can fibromyalgia be cured?

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition, but that does not mean living without quality of life. Care aims to control symptoms and restore function, with a plan adjusted to your routine.

Does telemedicine work for fibromyalgia?

Yes. Fibromyalgia diagnosis and follow-up are essentially clinical — based on conversation and history — and adapt well to the online format, sparing you travel on flare days.
