Effect of Physical Exercise and Neuromodulation on Pain, Sleep and Fatigue in Patients With Fibromyalgia

Evaluation of the Effect of Individualized Physical Training and Neuromodulation on Pain, Sleep and Fatigue in Patients With Fibromyalgia: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Feb 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Fibromyalgia (FMS) is a chronic, multifactorial syndrome characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and cognitive disturbances. This interventional study evaluates the impact of structured physical training using diagnostic-training devices (Zebris treadmill and Alfa balance platform) and transcutaneous neuromodulation (NESA X-Signal) on pain, sleep quality, and overall health status in patients with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue symptom. Participants are allocated into three groups: 1. Physical training + conventional physiotherapy, 2. Transcutaneous neuromodulation + conventional physiotherapy, 3. Control (conventional physiotherapy only). The results will support the development of evidence-based rehabilitation protocols for fibromyalgia patients.
