  • Acupuncture significantly reduces pain and stiffness in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), with benefits persisting long-term.
  • Improvements in quality of life, mental health, anxiety, depression, and energy were observed only in the short term.
  • No significant overall improvements were found for physical function or fatigue.
  • High-session-frequency acupuncture was associated with better physical function, while electrical stimulation acupuncture helped reduce fatigue and tender points.
