Hyperthermia in Fibromyalgia Syndrome

The first hyperthermia treatment of the series is carried out for the second aptitude test, directly following the randomisation in the intervention group at the Hospital for Naturopathy and Integrative Medicine in Bamberg. The hyperthermia treatment is then carried out in a cycle of two treatments per week, with at least one day in between, over a period of three weeks, according to the manufacturer's instructions. According to the guidelines, the rectal (possibly vaginal) temperature (as body core temperature), heart rate and oxygen saturation (Sp02) are continuously determined during the hyperthermia treatment. During the treatment, continuous supervision by trained personnel is guaranteed, and a doctor is on call.

The number of treatments is equal to the number of treatments in the intervention group.
