Study Summary

This trial examines a new technology called Remote Electrical Neuromodulation (REN) for treating fibromyalgia pain. REN uses non-painful signals to activate the body's pain management system

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with fibromyalgia or myofascial pain syndrome, experiencing widespread body pain, tenderness, and fatigue. Participants should be seeking non-pharmacological treatment options.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the FibroNova device's safety and effectiveness in treating fibromyalgia symptoms. It uses Remote Electrical Neuromodulation to potentially ease pain by activating the body's own pain management system.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed, similar neuromodulation devices can cause mild skin irritation at the site of application or a temporary increase in muscle tension.
