So a new neighbor told me about the machine. similar to a tens unit. Using radio and electric waves to help "heal" and "kill" things like cancer or bacteria. I told him this wasn't an actual disease but a nervous system issue, akin to an autoimmune type diseases. He said the "Rife Machine" has been used for things like muscle stains injuries and seemed to swear" by it.
As we all know it takes very little to push us over the edge with CRPS. And given my experiences I get VERY leery of anything that could do more harm than good. Anything that I have found, unless its a page to sell or by the makers of the machine, discredit it as nonsense. Has anyone heard of this or tried it for our condition? |

I had never heard of it until reading your post and googling it. It looks a lot like a tens machine. I am very hesitant to believe anything like this that claims to "cure" anything. I can't even tolerate a tens machine, so I wouldn't try this...but that's just me

I read about them years ago, when researching alternative therapies for my RSI/TOS chronic issues.
It just seemed a bit too far out there for my thinking. I do have a chi machine, IF stim, ultrasound, far infrared heating pad as well as a few posture help PT things. These are helpful for my myofascial pain, but may or may not help for RSD..
