Brief Summary

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.
