Summary

Pain treatment for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is challenging. There is some evidence that pain can be reduced by therapies aimed at helping patients 'find' normal sensation in the painful body part (i.e. perceiving the exact location of a touch on the painful hand with eyes closed). In this study, a collaboration between the CRPS service at Royal United Hospital (RUH), University of the West of England (UWE), University of Bath (UoB) and Cognitive Multisensory Rehabilitation Center, the investigators aim to test whether it is possible to administer a treatment called Cognitive Multisensory Rehabilitation (CMR) to people with CRPS. In order to do this, treatment-partners (e.g. spouses, partners) will be trained to deliver CMR in a home-based environment under the supervision of a CMR specialist. Generally speaking, CMR is a rehabilitation technique in which patients are guided to better feel their painful limb by paying more attention to different sensations (e.g. touch, or position), and mindfully moving it. Since previously CMR has shown promising results in people with stroke, the investigators believe that this method could be very useful for treating pain in CRPS.
