Summary
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic debilitating musculoskeletal pain syndrome. "Central
sensitization" is an important mechanism of the disease. Recent studies have shown that
"microbiome-gut-brain axis" imbalance may be one of the important mechanisms of "central
sensitization". The purpose of this study was to investigate the therapeutic mechanism of
Ba-Duan-Jin therapy in the treatment of fibromyalgia by improving intestinal microecology.
The mechanism was evaluated by comparing the results of brain functional MRI (fMRI) and
microbacterial analysis of the patients' stool pre and post treatment .
