Default Generally, cold is contraindicated in CRPS

From what I have read (and unfortunately experienced) there is a a body of info contraindicating the use of cold in therapy for CRPS.

*edit*
I had no idea that it was so damaging to the tiny pain nerve fibers, and was needing to be treated differently than other pain conditions. It felt so much better when it was numb from the cold, & I had no idea that there was so much risk and damage that was occurring, accelerating this neuroinflammatory disease.

I have also tried rolfing, and it was one of the best things I ever have ever tried for improvement of function and pain control.

Sincerely,
Corinne
