🌿 Fibromyalgia Rehabilitation Isn’t About Pushing Through — It’s About Healing With Support. 🌿
When you live with fibromyalgia, every task can feel monumental. Real progress is possible — with the right kind of rehabilitation.
At Annelie van Heerden Physiotherapists, our approach to fibromyalgia is gentle, holistic, and designed around your reality.
🧠 We see the whole picture — not just the pain.
Our fibromyalgia rehabilitation includes:
🔹 Movement therapy
Low-impact exercises like stretching, mobility, and graded strengthening help reduce stiffness and improve daily function — without flare-ups.
🔹 Nervous system calming
We teach techniques that help your body shift out of “survival mode” — using breathwork, pacing, and gentle cardiovascular activity to calm hypersensitivity.
🔹 Pain neuroscience education
Understanding how your body and brain process pain can reduce fear, anxiety, and reactivity — giving you tools to take back control.
🔹 Fatigue & flare-up planning
We guide you to listen to your body’s signals and build sustainable activity routines — so you can live more fully, with fewer crashes.
🔹 Sleep, stress & emotional support
Our programs include mindfulness, stress management, and sleep coaching — because healing isn’t just physical.
💬 You are not meant to push through the pain. You are meant to be supported through it.
Rehabilitation for fibromyalgia is not a one-size-fits-all.
It’s a journey — and we’re ready to walk it with you. 💜
