Emily Gives Her Testimonial Of Her Journey With Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
Video Summary –
Emily has been battling complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) for nearly three years, affecting her left arm, abdomen, and foot, which severely impacted her mobility, requiring the use of a wheelchair, crutches, and a boot.
She sought treatment at The Spero Clinic due to the debilitating nature of her condition and her desire to regain her previous lifestyle.
Before treatment, Emily’s pain levels were extremely high, between an eight and a nine on the pain scale.
Following her treatment at The Spero Clinic, Emily reports a remarkable improvement with her pain level reduced to zero.
With her pain alleviated, Emily looks forward to resuming normal activities, particularly giving a two-armed hug, seeing her family, and engaging in activities without prior concerns that her condition would interfere.

Suffering from a Neurological disorder can be incredibly isolating, hopeless and frightening and we understand that. Our treatment protocols are not meant to directly treat CRPS. What we work to achieve is the rehabilitation of the central nervous system.
The nervous system is a collective of nerves stemming throughout your body with the brain as the controller. Your nervous system controls all of the information that your body transmits to communicate with your brain. In the case of CRPS, your nervous system being damaged, can severely malfunction and send signals in the extreme to simple sensory input. i.e. – the wind blows on your hands and it feels like a terrible burn. By relaxing and rehabilitating the nervous system, as well as correcting any other imbalances within your brain and body, we hope to reset and restore the proper functionality of the systems within your body.
** We are currently the only facility in the world offering this treatment, our expertise is constantly being developed.
Each patient brings new knowledge and a better understanding of conditions that are widely misunderstood. At The Spero Clinic, it enables us to consistently mold and change our treatment protocol to be the most effective that we possibly can.
