I think it's more "hit" than miss with physical therapy in my opinion

My physical therapist was an absolute godsend to my condition. He helped control the spread and reverse it to a small area. And he increased my range of motion and helped my gait, then set me up with my own physical therapy regimen that I do at home. I see him only occasionally now.

I highly recommend a PT, but it has to be the right one. One that has experience with CRPS and is compassionate and understanding of the pain.

One of the first questions you need to ask them is this. "What do you know about CRPS and how many people have you treated with this condition?"

Good luck!
