OBJECTIVES: In fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) defined rehabilitation guidelines are yet to be validated. Our aim is to evaluate the efficacy of the Rességuier method (RM) in FMS. METHODS: Forty-one patients were randomly assigned to Interventional (22 pts) and Observational (19 pts) Group (IG and OG). The study lasted 8 months. Patients were assessed at baseline (T0) after a 2-month rehabilitation (T1) and at a 6-month follow-up (T2) (only IG) with SF-36 Physical (PSI) and Mental Synthetic Index (MSI), Regional Pain Scale (RPS), Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), Number Rating Scales 0-10 to measure pain, movement quality, sleep, relax ability, analgesics number/per week.

RESULTS: In IG, at T1 all items were improved: PSI and MSI (p
