Fibromyalgia (FM) is a generalized, widespread chronic pain disorder affecting 2.7% of the general population. In recent years, different studies have observed strong association between FM and psychological trauma. Therefore, trauma-focused psychotherapy, such as Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), combined with non-invasive brain stimulation technique, multifocal transcranial current (MtCS), could be an innovative adjunctive treatment option. This double-blind randomized controlled trial (RCT) analyzes if EMDR therapy effective in reduction symptoms patients, its potential boosted addition MtCS.
