Isokinetic microdose exercise for women with fibromyalgia

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

The study enrolls adult women with a clinical diagnosis of fibromyalgia to receive an 8-week supervised isokinetic exercise program delivered using microdosing principles to limit intensity and volume. Isokinetic equipment will control movement velocity and joint position to enable safe, precisely dosed muscle contractions. Researchers will measure physical condition (including strength and function), perceived pain, inflammatory biomarkers, and quality of life before and after the intervention. Participants must be clinically and pharmacologically stable and able to attend supervised sessions at the study site.

Why it matters

* Ability to perform supervised exercise and to complete the assessments.
* Written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Cardiovascular, neurologic, musculoskeletal or systemic pathology that contraindicate the performance of exercise.
