Summary

This study tests whether a short breathing and attention training (BAT) session can improve how the brain handles pain in people with fibromyalgia and in healthy volunteers. Participants will rate painful and non-painful sensations before and after BAT or a control breathing exercise. The goal is to see if this simple mindfulness technique can reduce pain sensitivity.
