Let's take a take a deep dive into the neurobiology of CRPS.
My aim is to essentially prove that this condition is real and help you understand the true nature of the condition so you can better understand how to treat it.
What you'll learn:
- The #1 cause of CRPS
- The underlying Nervous system changes with CRPS
- What's the deal with dystonia
- The science behind swelling with CRPS
- Why and how CRPS spreads
In part 2, we'll discuss the treatments for CRPS! Listen to PART 2 here: https://www.alissawolfe.com/podcasts/the-chronic-pain-breakup/episodes/2148056168
