Benefits of cognitive behavioural treatment for adults with comorbid insomnia and fibromyalgia

Takeaway 

  • Cognitive behavioural treatment for insomnia (CBT-I) offers promise to reduce chronic pain in some adults with fibromyalgia.

Why this matters

    Insomnia is a highly prevalent comorbidity in chronic pain, and CBT-I interventions may be more effective than CBT for pain (CBT-P) at reducing pain intensity in people with fibromyalgia.
