Galileo Research Facts No. 136: Can Galileo Therapy improve quality of life (QOL) in Fibromyalgia patients?

This study documented the effects of Galileo Therapy on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in Fibromyalgia patients. Both groups received over a period of 12 weeks (3 session per week) standard therapy, the Galileo group additional Galileo Therapy at 12.5Hz. Each session consisted of 6 repetitions of 1 minute of semi-tandem stance (one foot with lifted toes, one with lifted heels) with one minute rest in-between.

While the control groups showed as expected a decrease in HRQOL of up to 7% (FIQ, Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire) the Galileo group showed a significant increase with an over-all difference compared to control of up to 11% within just 12 weeks. These results are in line with #GRFS102 which showed an improvement of balance in Fibromyalgia patients during Galileo Therapy.
