Patients　with　juvenile　fibromyalgia（JFM） have　been　treated　with　multidirectional　approach　during hospitalization　in　our　hospital.　Admission　isolates　JFM　patients　from　their　troublesome　environment　that　they cannot　handle　well　in　their　school　and/or　home．　The　patients　who　have　severe　physical　disability　and　come-up against　difficult　situation　were　suitable　for　hospitalization．　The　patients　are　in　scheduled　daily　life　and　enroll　in an　in-hospital　class　during　hospitalization．　Rehabilitation　is　started　for　improvement　of　patient's　physical disability　and　drug　therapy　is　helpful　for　relieving　pain． A total　of　32　children（aged　7.9-15.7　years）who　admitted　in　our　hospital　from　March　2001　to　December 2012 were　retrospectively　examined　by　medical　record．　Fifty-three　percent　of　the　patients　were　improved　in clinical　stage，and　only　one　patient　got　worse　in　activities　of　daily　living．　In　nine　out of　32　patients，tender　point counts　were　decreased，and　disappeared　in　6 out　of　32　patients．　Nine　out　of　25　patients　who　stopped　going　to school　came　to　go　to　school　at　three　months　after　leaving　hospital．　　　We　suggest　that　multidirectional　approach　during　hospitalization　must　be　effective　therapy　for　severe JFM　patients　to　improve　their　physical　disability．
