In the western world, many people are diagnosed with conditions which have no identifiable cause and so, have no known treatment.
Indeed, in the UK, conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia are increasing, alongside psychologically based illnesses such as depression and anxiety. While many doctors prescribe pain medication to relieve the discomfort caused by chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia, many people find these medications make them feel sluggish and unable to function in day to day life.
If you are looking for a way to relieve conditions like fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue, look no further.

A form of osteopathy which involves manual drainage of the lymph nodes, this technique has been found to reduce the symptoms of chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and sleep disorders without the need for sedative or opiate based medications, something which is highly desirable.
