Dopamine
Dopamine in the brain's dorsal striatum is key for controlling movement. When a neuron gets a signal, it releases dopamine into the synaptic cleft, where it binds to receptors on the next neuron to transmit the signal. Some of this dopamine is recycled and repackaged for future use, thanks to VMAT2. VMAT2 inhibitors stop this process, reducing the amount of dopamine in each signal. This can help manage involuntary movements in hyperkinetic disorders by lowering dopamine signaling. Learn more-->

Fibromyalgia is more than just chronic pain; it is a multifaceted syndrome that can significantly impact an individual’s quality of life. The aetiology of fibromyalgia remains complex, with research suggesting a combination of genetic, neurobiological, and environmental factors contributing to its development and progression. Dr. Mikel refers to fibromyalgia as the second stage of chronic fatigue syndrome. Currently, there is no medical treatment for fibromyalgia. Still, ANF Therapy®️ is the only evidence-based frequency medicine therapy that treats the root cause of fibromyalgia, unlike other treatment options that mainly focus on treating symptoms.
