@kdubois When I contact a new masseuse II ask if they are certified and if they are experienced with fibromyalgia or physical therapy. The web site http://www.NCBTMB.com can help you locate a certified therapist by zip code.
Thanks for the link. I found 3 in my area. I was a physiotherapist, so hope I won't be too hard to deal with!
How does one do bio feed back? Is it expensive?

@sandytoes14 I haven't tried biofeedback yet. I start cognitive behavioral therapy soon in the hopes that it will help with my brain damage and sleep disorders, so I'll ask about that.
I think therapeutic massage will help. Are there any certain qualifications I should look for in a massage therapist?
