Treatment Options for CRPS
We offer a wide range of treatment options to help manage your CRPS and reduce pain. These may include:
Medications
Our CRPS specialists may prescribe medications to help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve overall function. These may include analgesics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), anticonvulsants, and antidepressants. Medications can be tailored to your specific needs and adjusted as required.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapy plays a crucial role in CRPS management. Our skilled physiotherapists develop individualized exercise programs to improve mobility, strength, and flexibility. They utilize various techniques such as manual therapy, nerve mobilization, and assisted rehabilitation to help you regain function and alleviate pain.
Occupational Therapy
Our occupational therapists assist in improving daily activities and functional abilities affected by CRPS. They provide strategies to manage pain, adapt activities, and promote independent living. They may recommend assistive devices and ergonomic modifications to enhance your quality of life.
Pain Management Interventions
In cases where conservative measures do not provide sufficient relief, our CRPS specialists may recommend interventional pain management techniques. These may include nerve blocks, spinal cord stimulation, or intravenous infusions. These interventions target the source of pain and aim to provide long-lasting relief.
Psychological Support
Living with CRPS can have a significant impact on your mental well-being. Our team of psychologists offers guidance and support to help you cope with the emotional challenges associated with chronic pain. They provide therapeutic interventions, counseling, and stress management techniques to improve your overall psychological health.
Alternative Therapies
As part of our holistic approach, we also offer alternative therapies that may complement your CRPS treatment plan. These may include acupuncture, massage therapy, mind-body techniques, and nutritional counseling. These therapies can help promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance overall well-being.
