This book will help you navigate chronic pain and the condition called fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is characterised by fatigue, muscle aches, wandering chronic pains, depression and anxiety. It often develops slowly, usually over several years.
Being unwell can feel like being lost. To find your way back to health you will need two to know where you are right now, and a map to show you the way.
This book creates that map by explaining the landmarks for fibromyalgia. It is a synthesis of knowledge from fibromyalgia research and from current pain research, neuroscience and pain psychology, combined with the author’s clinical experience.
This knowledge creates a fuller picture of fibromyalgia and demonstrates that recovery is possible. The author presents a toolbox of practical treatments, without using drugs.
Caroline’s experience using acupuncture to treat fibromyalgia, led her to develop the new Vagal Toning Acupressure system (VTA) which she teaches here for the first time.

Illuminating and informative, Taking Control of Fibromyalgia reveals an empowering path to restore your natural health and well-being.
This book has been super helpful in not only the breakdown of the science into an easy to follow format. That helped me understand a lot more. Will definitely be buying a physical version of this book also.
I found this book very informative. There was a lot of technical information but it was explained in an easy way. I'm definitely going to use the self help tips.
