When fibromyalgia determines your daily life
Fibromyalgia often means much more than persistent pain. Many sufferers feel physically and mentally exhausted, even though they get adequate rest. Activities that were once taken for granted become a daily challenge, and spontaneous outings are often no longer possible.
Perhaps some of these situations are familiar to you:
In the morning, they wake up already with pain or severe fatigue.
Walking, shopping or the household chores take up significantly more energy than before.
After minor stresses, you need long recovery periods.
Sleep disorders affect your recovery and your daily life.
They often cancel appointments or hobbies because the symptoms are unpredictable.
They avoid movement out of concern that the pain could worsen.
You want more energy and mobility for work, family and leisure time again.
The longer these complaints persist, the more they restrict your daily life, your independence, and your quality of life. Therefore, special pain therapy is all the more important, which comprehensively considers your complaints and treats them specifically.
Why the right pain therapist makes the difference in fibromyalgia
Targeted pain therapy aims to gradually restore you more mobility, resilience, and quality of life. For this to be achieved, it is not just the treatment itself that matters, but the entire therapeutic approach. A good pain therapist takes into account various influencing factors and develops a therapy that is tailored to your symptoms and daily life.
Reason 1
Understanding complaints instead of treating them too quickly
Detailed diagnostics forms the basis of any pain therapy. This allows for the identification of connections and the targeted planning of the next steps of treatment.
Reason 2
Combining several therapeutic approaches
Fibromyalgia often affects different areas of the body. Therefore, pain therapy should combine different therapeutic components rather than limiting itself to a single measure.
Reason 3
Rebuild movement step by step
Many sufferers avoid movement out of fear of more severe pain. Targeted pain therapy helps to increase the level of strain in a controlled manner and to regain more confidence in one's own body.
Reason 4
Integrating everyday life into the treatment process
Every person experiences fibromyalgia differently. Therefore, good pain therapy takes into account your personal situation, your resilience, and your goals in everyday life.
Reason 5
Complaints accompany the patient over the long term
Chronic pain changes over time. Regular follow-up examinations help adjust the treatment and promote new progress.
The pain therapy at the Schmerzwerkstatt München is based on exactly these principles.

Get to know the Schmerzwerkstatt Munich
The causes and influencing factors of chronic pain such as fibromyalgia are often complex and rarely can be fully understood from a single medical perspective. Therefore, the Schmerzwerkstatt München aims to offer specialized pain therapy at a high medical level also in the outpatient setting. At the heart of this is always the human being, not just the diagnosis.
Our team consists exclusively of specialists with the additional title Special pain therapy. These include Dr. Claudius Gall (specialist in neurosurgery), Simona Gece (specialist in anesthesiology) and Alexander Fuchs (specialist in anesthesiology). Together, they bring together different medical disciplines to comprehensively assess and treat chronic pain.
For us, every pain therapy begins with understanding your personal situation. Therefore, we take the time to have a detailed conversation and consider the treatments already performed, the existing findings, and your personal life situation. Only on this basis do we develop a treatment plan that suits your complaints and your daily life.
