Suffering From Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy?
Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome (RSD) is a condition causing pain in the arms or legs, especially after an injury, stroke, or even heart attack. Do you know that the severity of the pain is worse than the original injury? However, RSD is an old terminology often called Type I CRPS, triggered by tissue injury with no underlying nerve injury. It usually starts with the onset of pain and escalates to a severe stage that can think of the last resort. There are often pathological changes in bone and skin that can lead to tissue swelling, excessive sweating, and becoming extremely sensitive to touch. The most prominent symptom of Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy is pain described as a burning, stinging, or tearing sensation deep inside the limbs.
Some conditions that can trigger RSD are sprains, fractures, surgery, damage to blood vessels or nerves, and specific brain injuries. For instance, if you get hurt, your sympathetic nervous system tells your blood vessels to get smaller, so you don’t lose much blood. However, if you are injured and have RSD, the sympathetic nervous system gets mixed signals. It turns on the signals but does not turn them off, causing swelling or pain.
Scrambler Therapy Treats Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy!
If you have RSD or CRPS Type I, our treatment method has helped them find pain relief. The procedure is simple as our healthcare practitioners thoroughly examine the patient’s condition, signs or symptoms, and medical history. Then we apply small electrodes near the pain site, and the device sends brief and mild signals through the body to the brain. These electrical signals scramble the message as the body experiences pain, then the signals change the message to the brain that there is no pain. This is where the relief process begins. It is a pain management approach with no adverse side effects and addictive properties linked to narcotic painkillers.
If you experience this condition and struggle with some hard times, our healthcare practitioners will thoroughly examine you and develop the best possible solution. It’s time for you to stop living with pain and schedule an appointment with Natural Foundations at (540) 730-2444.
