Objective: To describe the development and test the efficacy of a cognitive-behavioral intervention (CBT) for juvenile fibromyalgia.
Method: Sixty-seven children with fibromyalgia and their parents were recruited to participate in an 8-week intervention that included modules of pain management, psychoeducation, sleep hygiene, and activities of daily living. Children were taught techniques of cognitive restructuring, thought stopping, distraction, relaxation, and self-reward.
