Alp Ertung (see photo) is one of my ex-students from National Training Centre, Dublin (on their excellent Higher Diploma in Neuromuscular Therapy, course) He is based in Turkey and he asks a pertinent question regarding the possible relationship between chronic hyperventilation and fibromyalgia ? I covered this topic in some detail - pages 74-82 - in my book on the subject FIBROMYALGIA SYNDROME - A PRACTITIONERS GUIDE (3rd edition, ChurchillLivingstone/Elsevier 2009) UK: astore.amazon.co.uk/leonchaitow-21/detail/0443069360 USA: astore.amazon/leonchaitowco-20/detail/0443069360 Hyperventilation is also discussed in my laymans guide to Fibromyalgia: FIBROMYALGIA & MUSCLE PAIN - YOUR SELF-HELP TREATMENT GUIDE (Thorsons HarperCollins) UK: astore.amazon.co.uk/leonchaitow-21/images/0007115024 USA: astore.amazon/leonchaitowco-20/images/0007115024 Time and space do not allow me to explore the many links between fibromyalgia/chronic pain and breathing function here - however the chart alongside the book cover, offers a flavour of the many possible overlapping connections. There are also a number of freely downloadable articles from my website: leonchaitow/2013/04/27/report-effective-treatments-for-fibromyalgia/ leonchaitow/2009/12/18/palpation-skills-fibromyalgia-syndrome-third-editions-now-available/ leonchaitow/2010/05/13/is-it-a-muscle-or-joint-problem-is-it-local-or-referred/ leonchaitow/2008/04/02/is-yeast-candida-really-your-problem/ and more ........... search the website leonchaitow I will be teaching a course on Fibromyalgia in Holland, at the end of the month, for Dutch osteopaths - and breathing dysfunction will be part of that For details of that course contact info@pro-osteo
