Brief Summary
Connective tissue massage (CTM), one of the various manual therapy techniques for FMS, produces local mechanical effects on mast cells in the connective tissue with short and long tractions, thereby reducing sympathetic activity and producing vasodilation. The aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of self myofascial release technique and connective tissue massage in patients with FMS. At least 30 FMS patients will be included in the study. Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire, pain, quality of life and sleep quality will be evaluated. CTM will be practiced to study group and foam roller will be practiced to control group.
