I am a sports medicine chiropractor with 50 years in medicine,PT,chiropractic.

These two conditions RSD/CRPD as well as many orthopedic conditions causing pain need the combination of manipulation as well as soft tissue therapy. I would recommend a chiropractor who works with sports teams and has lots of experience in treating severe injuries.

If you can find a chiropractor who does extensive soft tissue therapy such as myofascial release technique, transverse friction massage and manipulation that should be enough to correct most people with this condition around 15 treatments maybe a little more for severe trauma like falling off a horse,motorcycle,bicycle. Very few people will be well in less than 15 treatments.

If you can't find a chiropractor who can relieve your pain find any sports medicine massage therapist, PT. who does myofacial therapy.

The key word here is very skilled manipulation (not a part timer) and a therapist who does exclusively myofascial. **
