We empower our members to become bearers of hope for a better life.

There for You for 30 Years

In 1992, the World Health Organisation (WHO) officially recognized the diagnosis of fibromyalgia. In December of the same year, Liette Nault and Murielle Guimont founded Fibromyalgia Laval to provide support and assistance to people with fibromyalgia.

One of the initial goals of the organization was to “raise awareness and recognition of fibromyalgia”. As a result, much work has been done over the years to raise awareness of the condition and its symptoms.

Today, Fibromyalgia Laval also supports people living with fibromyalgia in their quest for wellness. This support takes several forms, including:

  • Providing information on the condition and existing resources.
  • Offering adapted activities and services.

 

Professional help is also provided to people living with chronic pain.

Fibromyalgia Laval is a registered charitable organization, recognized by the City of Laval and subsidized by the Centre intégré de santé et de services sociaux de Laval (CIUSS de Laval).
