The etiology of fibromyalgia syndrome is not fully understood; it can have more than one cause and for this reason different approaches are employed in a multimodal and combined management perspective since there is no one specific treatment considered effective. Pharmacotherapy and treatment based on aerobic exercise and cognitive-behavioral therapy are used. Studies on the effectiveness of manual therapy are currently few in number and of poor methodological quality.
