CRPS & Mirror Therapy

For those of you that are dealing with CRPS you may or may not know about what I am going to talk about today. I am going to attach a couple of videos today by David Butler that explain what is going on in the brain in a person with CRPS. There are three videos that I'm going to post which deal with what is going on in the brain and using mirror therapy to treat.







I know that these videos are a little long however it gives you good insight into what is going on in the brain and how we can make a difference to get the brain to retrain back to the way that it was before.

  2. Mirror therapy was first described by V.S. Ramachandran, but has since been proven in the treatment of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) / RSD, and stroke rehabilitation, as well as for hand and foot rehabilitation following an injury or surgery. www.mirrorboxtherapy.com is a good place to start; it has lots of information and a link to where you can purchase a mirror box.
