Brain stimulation and exercise for fibromyalgia
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether combining a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS) with exercise sessions you can do at home over video calls can help reduce fibromyalgia symptoms. It aims to find a safe and convenient treatment option that fits into your daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be between 30 and 70 years old.
- You need a doctor's diagnosis of fibromyalgia.
- Your fibromyalgia medications have not changed in the last 12 weeks.
- You are comfortable using a smartphone or computer and have internet access.
- You can speak and read Spanish.

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called TMS) can help reduce pain and improve mood in women with fibromyalgia. Researchers will use MRI scans and brain stimulation to understand how pain and reward circuits in the brain work.
This trial tests if a gentle nerve stimulation treatment can reduce pain and improve daily function in people with fibromyalgia. It aims to understand how treatment affects natural pain signals.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) can help reduce fibromyalgia pain. You'll use a small device at home that sends mild electrical currents to your scalp, and researchers will monitor your progress via video calls.
This trial compares a non-invasive, at-home brain stimulation technique (tDCS) to the medication duloxetine for treating fibromyalgia pain. It aims to see if the brain stimulation works as well as the drug.
This trial tests whether adding gentle brain stimulation (tDCS) to exercise can help people with chronic widespread pain (like fibromyalgia). It aims to see if this combination reduces pain better than exercise alone.
This study tests whether a gentle electrical brain stimulation method (tDCS), combined with a pain coping program, can help reduce fibromyalgia pain. It compares two groups to see if adding brain stimulation makes the coping program more effective.
