Exercises During Isolation at Home

Many of us suffering from Fibromyalgia find that we benefit from gentle exercise each day. Isolating at home makes it harder to participate in exercise, especially with Chair Based Classes not taking place and Hydrotherapy Pools closed. The Rugby Fibromyalgia Support Group has published a set of gentle stretches that can be done at home. These came from an NHS Pain Management Programme. Start with doing 3 or 4 with a frequency of twice then gradually increase the frequency to five. You can then extend the number of exercises until you are doing all the ones you feel comfortable doing. Click here fibromyalgiarugby.wordpress...
