First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a device called Lymphatic Enhancement Technology (LET) can reduce pain and improve quality of life in women with fibromyalgia. Forty participants will receive either active or sham LET treatments once a week for four weeks. Researchers will measure changes in symptoms using questionnaires and pain tests. The goal is to see if LET offers a new way to manage fibromyalgia symptoms.
