Clinical Rheumatology, 06/26/09
Ernst E – Review concludes that there is insufficient evidence for chiropractic to be an effective treatment for fibromyalgia. Without conclusive evidence, it is impossible to support or dismiss the claims made by practitioners.

- No language restrictions were applied
- Data extraction and validation were carried out by 2 independent reviewers
