Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain syndrome experienced by around 4% of the U.S. population. If you have this condition, you may have to endure these symptoms:

As a NUCCA chiropractor in Redwood City, Dr. Tsiglieris knows about the unnecessary difficulty fibromyalgia brings to those who have it. As an advocate for natural health, he wants his clients free from the pains and discomfort from this condition.
