Can you fully recover from CRPS?

Can you fully recover from CRPS?

The Short Answer:

CRPS Remission is possible. Many patients who suffer from Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) are able to achieve remission from CRPS.

The Long Answer:

The concept of a “cure” is a delicate and often subjective topic. When you consider CRPS recovery or a “cure”, you may imagine a miraculous pill, injection, surgery, or a groundbreaking study that suddenly eliminates CRPS. This is not the case. It is not a condition that can be healed by a miracle chemical; it is a body where a whole bunch of things went wrong.

It is important that you understand that CRPS was not caused by just one event, and if you’re going to heal it, it’s not just going to be healed by one thing or one procedure. It has to be turned around, as a whole, so that the body can heal from within, as a whole.

CRPS does not have to be a life sentence. While it is incredibly complex and complicated, it is by no means impossible to unravel. We watch patients overcome this disease every day. If they can do it, you can, too!

Many patients do enter long-term remission and live active, fulfilling lives. Full recovery is possible, though it usually depends on early diagnosis, individualized treatment, and addressing multiple aspects of the body’s systems involved in CRPS.

What is CRPS Remission?

In this context, remission means being pain-free and returning to everyday activities without limitations.

It means embracing life and being able to do all the activities you used to do, and maybe even more.

After surviving chronic pain, many of our patients find that they have a new sense of gratitude and desire to live their lives to the absolute fullest.

The majority of our former patients have successfully returned to highly active lifestyles, engaging in sports and hobbies like snow and water skiing, cheerleading, competitive volleyball, and weightlifting.

The gallery below features images provided by our former patients (or as we call them, graduates), sharing some of the activities they are able to enjoy after graduating from Spero Clinic’s Neurologic Rehabilitation Program in full remission of CRPS. Our patients come from all over the world and can now enjoy life without pain or fear.

In sharing these images, we hope to give you hope and inspiration. Regardless of how long you’ve had chronic pain or how you’ve been treated before, it is possible to thrive again. You are not broken beyond repair. Your body is amazing and capable of healing!
