1. Epsom Salt.
Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate. Soaking in an Epsom salt bath helps your body absorb magnesium. Fibromyalgia is often associated with magnesium deficiency. This soothing bath can also help reduce pain and induce relaxation. Mix 2 cups of Epsom salt in warm bathwater. Soak in it for about 20 minutes. Do this up to 3 times a week.

2. Massage.
Massage therapy helps relax your muscles and improve the range of motion in your joints. It also relieves stress and stimulates production of chemicals that act as the body’s natural painkillers. A type of massage called manual lymph drainage therapy (MLDT) is also beneficial for fibromyalgia. It loosens up lymph blockages that could be contributing to the pain.

3. Omega-3 Fatty Acids.
Take 1 to 2 tablespoons of fish oil daily. Also, eat fatty fish like herring, sardines, anchovies, tuna or wild salmon 2 or 3 times a week. Other sources of omega-3 fatty acids include flaxseeds, walnuts, canola oil and soybean oil. You can opt for fish oil or omega-3 supplements instead, but consult your doctor first.

4. Apple cider vinegar.
Apple cider vinegar helps balance the body’s pH levels, reduce oxidative stress and improve circulation. This can help reduce fibromyalgia symptoms like gastrointestinal issues, fatigue, headaches, joint pain, swelling and inflammation. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar to a glass of water. Optionally, add a little honey. Drink it twice daily.
