NCT ID NCT07533487
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether adding a gentle electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) to cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and standard medicines could reduce pain and improve quality of life in 60 postmenopausal women with fibromyalgia. Participants were split into three groups: one received only medication, another added CBT, and the third added both CBT and TENS. The goal was to see if the combined approach offered extra relief for pain, symptoms, and daily function.
