This requires two separate licenses in most states, and more often than not, attending 2 different schools.
What common questions should you ask a massage therapist about fibromyalgia?
Before you see any massage therapist you should ask them if they are familiar with Fibromyalgia and how it impacts the body. They should be aware of the general tender points and trigger points. If you do not feel comfortable with their level of knowledge, you should seek a different therapist. You should ask your massage therapist what type of massage they feel will best benefit you, and how often you should return for best results. It is just as important to make them aware of how Fibromyalgia impacts you personally, since each patient is affected differently. Be sure to point out to them areas that are currently bothering you or that you prefer they avoid. It is also important that they are aware of any medications that you are on. It is important to keep an open dialogue during your massage. You should speak up if lying in a specific position is causing pain, or if they are applying too much pressure. Remember, a massage should not increase your pain. Also, remember to drink lots of water after a massage. Often, massage will allow the release of toxins, and increase lymphatic drainage, drinking water will help cleanse your tissues and provide a better result.
