Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The principal study aims at evaluating the efficiency of rTMS maintenance sessions on the clinical effect of a rTMS cure in fibromyalgic subjects. This complementary study consists in the evaluation of the experimental sensitivity to mechanical pain (pressure application on the forearm) of subjects presenting fibromyalgia before and after rTMS treatment (21 days), and to put the results in relation to the clinical improvement and the psychometric evaluations (depression,fibromyalgia impact questionnaire, catastrophism).
