Find out what’s going on – so you can take control!

When acupuncturist Caroline Williams found that increasing numbers of her patients had fibromyalgia, and they were given no hope of recovery, she became determined to find out why.

Drawing on current scientific research she reveals that, far from being a mysterious disease, the causes and symptoms of fibromyalgia can be explained and altered.

You will discover why this type of chronic pain can develop, why pain medication isn’t necessarily the best solution, and how you can ease your body out of the fibromyalgia state. In the process she explains that fibromyalgia is not your fault, what ‘learned pain’ really means, and how a seemingly unremarkable experiment with a rat helps to make sense of why our bodies create pain.

Caroline’s experience using acupuncture, led her to develop the new Vagal Toning Acupressure system (VTA) for treating fibromyalgia, which she teaches you in this book.
