Overview

Fibromyalgia is often described as widespread pain with no clear origin—but that doesn’t mean it’s “all in your head.” In the bioenergetic model, fibromyalgia reflects a deep energy imbalance: the body is stuck in a stress state, unable to repair tissues or regulate inflammation. This chronic energy deficiency leads to pain amplification, nervous system hypersensitivity, poor sleep, and a host of systemic symptoms.

Typical symptoms of fibromyalgia include:

 

  • Diffuse muscle and joint pain, often migrating or fluctuating

  • Chronic fatigue and morning stiffness

  • Brain fog and memory lapses (“fibro fog”)

  • Unrestorative sleep and insomnia

  • Heightened sensitivity to noise, light, temperature, or touch

  • IBS-like digestive symptoms

 

Underlying Bioenergetic Triggers:

 

  • Chronic stress leading to nervous system overactivation (sympathetic dominance)

  • Hypothyroidism and low metabolic rate

  • Poor mitochondrial output—low ATP, high lactate

  • Estrogen dominance, serotonin excess, or cortisol imbalance

  • Nutrient depletion (magnesium, sodium, potassium, B vitamins)

  • High tissue levels of polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) contributing to inflammation

 

Our Approach

We help unwind fibromyalgia by rebuilding your energy systems, lowering cellular stress, and supporting nervous system regulation. This includes:

  • Pro-metabolic nutrition with easily digested carbs, high-quality protein, saturated fats, and mineral repletion

  • Gentle thyroid and liver support to enhance energy production and hormone clearance

  • Nervous system down-regulation: conscious breathing, light therapy, and restorative movement

  • Avoidance of serotonin-raising or estrogenic compounds that worsen fibro symptoms

  • Support for tissue oxygenation and mitochondrial repair through targeted supplementation and red light therapy

For example, a patient with long-standing fibromyalgia had been told to accept it as lifelong. Lab work revealed low body temperature, elevated cortisol, and suppressed T3 thyroid hormone. After introducing warming, pro-metabolic foods, replenishing salt and sugar, and weaning off estrogenic supplements, her energy and pain levels dramatically improved within weeks.
