If you are living with fibromyalgia, you may be eligible for various forms of support and compensation, depending on your country and situation. This can range from financial support through benefits to access to aids and medical supplies. In the Netherlands and Belgium, government agencies sometimes offer disability benefits, workplace modifications, and specific health care benefits. More info...

Guidance and tools
In addition, people with fibromyalgia may be entitled to assistance and resources in daily living. This may include support from social workers, access to adapted mobility aids and opportunities for informal care support. Many organizations and agencies also offer courses and groups that focus on learning how to manage chronic pain and improve quality of life. It is advisable to check with the municipality or specialized agencies to see what types of assistance are available to help you live as comfortable a daily life as possible.
Massage therapy as an adjunct
Many people with fibromyalgia experience relief from their symptoms through regular use of massage therapy. Massage chairs from MediRelaxa can be an effective way to reduce muscle tension and promote overall well-being, and some health insurance companies cover some of the cost of this therapy.
Check with your health insurance and local agencies to determine what options are available to you.
