If you’ve been dealing with fibromyalgia, you already know about the symptoms, the constant aches, unexplained fatigue, and those frustrating muscle spasms that seem to happen every time. They’re not just painful; they can interrupt your sleep, limit your movement, and make everyday life feel like an uphill battle.
There are ways to ease and even stop fibromyalgia muscle spasms. ANF Therapy® is an advanced frequency-based approach to aid the recovery of muscle injuries and chronic pain. In this blog, we will discuss the practical and natural strategies that can help you manage fibromyalgia muscle spasms.
What causes muscle spasms in fibromyalgia?
Muscle spasms in fibromyalgia happen when your muscles contract uncontrollably. It usually happens due to:
- Hyperactivity of nerves
- Poor blood circulation
- Chronic Inflammation
- Stress and anxiety
- Nutrient deficiencies (like magnesium or potassium)
- Poor sleep or disrupted sleep cycles
Your nervous system is often in “high alert” mode with fibromyalgia, and that makes your muscles more reactive and prone to cramping or twitching, especially at night.
How to manage fibromyalgia muscle spasms naturally?
Various natural ways can help you manage fibromyalgia-associated muscle spasms.
ANF Therapy®:
ANF Therapy® or Amino Neuro Frequency Therapy is a frequency-based approach that is designed to aid in the treatment, prevention, and relief of musculoskeletal injuries, as well as related problems such as pain, swelling, discomfort, and limited mobility. It is also designed for use in physical rehabilitation, neuromusculoskeletal care, and supportive treatment settings.
A real-world study involved 1,054 patients across 45 countries to assess the effectiveness of ANF Therapy®. Common pain areas included the lower back, knee, neck, and shoulder. As a result, pain levels decreased significantly, from 7.6 to 3.1 out of 10 with ANF Therapy®. Patients also showed reduced swelling and improved range of motion. Satisfaction was high (92/100), and side effects, such as dry mouth, headache, and fatigue, were mild and short-term, reported by 42% of patients. The results indicate that ANF Therapy® is helpful in supporting the recovery of orthopaedic injuries.
1 – Start with Gentle Movement
Always involve yourself in gentle movement. It will keep your muscles active, stay flexible, and remain oxygenated, thereby avoiding muscle spasms. Try stretching exercises and gentle yoga to promote blood flow in the affected areas of your body. Don’t engage in strenuous exercise, as this may worsen your symptoms.
2 – Maintain good sleep hygiene:
Fibromyalgia flares include spasms that often get worse if you are not sleeping properly because your body heals when you sleep. You can improve your sleep hygiene by following these tips:- Stick to a consistent sleep schedule
- Avoid screens at least an hour before bed
- Try a warm bath with Epsom salts before sleeping
- Keep your bedroom cool and dark
3 – Calm the Nervous System
Since fibromyalgia is often linked to an overactive nervous system, reducing the overactivity of the nervous system can help you minimise muscle spasms over time. The following are a few ways to calm your nervous system:
- Deep breathing
- meditations or sound baths
- Yoga
- Stress relaxation techniques
The goal is to shift your body out of “fight or flight” mode and into “rest and digest.”
4 – Healthy diet:
Dehydration or low levels of key minerals can trigger spasms. Keep yourself hydrated at all times, as dehydration can exacerbate muscle spasms. Eating foods rich in potassium and magnesium and limiting processed sugar can also help improve your symptoms.
Some people benefit from an anti-inflammatory diet to reduce overall fibromyalgia symptoms. This includes a variety of whole foods, omega-3 fats, and gluten- and dairy-free foods.
5 – Muscle support:
You don’t need fancy gadgets or aggressive massages. Simple, consistent care can make a big difference.
- Use foam rolling or trigger point massage
- Topical magnesium oil or muscle balms
- Heat pads for stiff areas
- Hot and cold compresses to calm spasms and stimulate circulation
Conclusion:
Fibromyalgia muscle spasms can make everyday life hard, but there are ways to feel better. Simple things, such as staying active through light movement, getting good sleep, eating the right foods, and calming your nervous system, can make a significant difference.
