Fibromyalgia is a common disorder that involves widespread pain, tenderness, fatigue, and other symptoms. A variety of complementary health approaches have been studied to see if they might be helpful for fibromyalgia symptoms: 

  • Although some studies of tai chi, yoga, mindfulness meditation, and biofeedback for fibromyalgia have had promising results, the evidence is too limited to allow definite conclusions to be reached about whether these approaches are helpful.
