A new application of sound resonance technology therapy for the treatment of fibromyalgia: A retrospective analysis
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryObjectiveChart review to evaluate the effectiveness of a three-phase sound resonance technology therapy (SRTT) protocol for the treatment of fibromyalgia.ResultsInitial FIQ scores of 159 consecutive patients ranged from 24 to 80 (mean=58). After Phase 1, (≈1 month into the protocol), FIQ scores had decreased on average by 26 points (n=128, 95% CI 23–30, p<.001). After phase 3 of the protocol 53 patients completed an FIQ questionnaire and the mean decrease in FIQ score was 38 points (95% CI 32–44, p=.004).ConclusionsThis retrospective analysis suggests considerable and rapid relief of the symptoms of fibromyalgia following the use of the three-phase SRTT treatment protocol, which appears to be maintained over several years. Although these results are not conclusive they are remarkable as no other therapy reported in the scientific literature seems as efficacious for fibromyalgia. A follow-up study using an RCT design is warranted.
