As the owner and operator of Walker Physical Therapy and Pain Center in Orange, California, Grace Walker, a highly trained physical and occupational therapist, helps people achieve their pain management goals. Physical therapist Grace Walker has decades of experience assisting patients with a myriad of conditions, including fibromyalgia. Individuals with fibromyalgia live with disruptive symptoms such as generalized musculoskeletal pain, persistent tiredness, and problems with sleeping and memory recall. Fibromyalgia manifests more often in women than in men and often coincides with other painful illnesses, such as irritable bowel syndrome and headache disorders. Researchers do not yet understand the factors that give rise to fibromyalgia. However, evidence suggests that fibromyalgia may be genetic, meaning it runs in families. Though there is no cure for the illness, doctors recommend treatments to manage symptoms, including medications to reduce pain and nondrug approaches, such as physical therapy and massage therapy.
