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. IE - 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. It enables us to consistently mold and change our treatment protocol to be the most effective that we possibly can.

Its awesome that you help so many people, but depressing for those who don't have an absurd amount of money. Which i'm guessing is a lot of people in this world that will continue to suffer. Its sad.

I hope one day I can bring my husband here to see you all. Hes had CRPS for almost 11 years and it's been a living hell for him. He was in the military and because of an injury is medically retired now. He has tried literally everything for pain. And I mean everything. Hes 40 years old and says he feels like an 80 year old man. He got CRPS in his ankles, then his shoulders and is currently having issues with his hips. We know its spreading there. Hes had two stimulators that dont help. I read about your facility from an article about a girl that is coming from Australia to see you all. My mission in life is to have my husband back. I miss him. This pain condition has taken his spirit and has really ruined his life. We have 4 kids and he is an awesome dad but cant do all that he wants because of his pain. I'd do anything to have him happy again. Thank you for caring for others and offering this treatment. No one understand what CRPS does to a person. I hope soon we can get enough money to send my husband out there to see you all. I know it will change his life and ours.

I'm also a 100% disabled veteran. I have CRPS in my foot and I believe it has spread up my leg after my third surgery this past Feb. I wish the VA would pay for our treatments at places like this. I'm fighting to have ketamine done because it's so expensive for me to pay for myself, but the VA refuses expensive treatments, even if they're proven to help our condition, and even if it's for injuries sustained in combat. This is a big reason why 22 veterans commit suicide per day!! We are in excruciating pain (both physically and mentally) and feel like worthless objects that have been used up and thrown away... forgotten and left behind. Something we were promised would never happen. (I'm not saying I want to hurt myself YT... don't flag me. I'm stating facts about our country).

Unfortunately money determines well being with these issues . Ppl that are poor ( because they are disabled ) are out of luck . Sorry , it’s not negative it’s the truth . No money / no quality of care . As dr k says . Sure wish they didn’t charge a fortune . So sad .

Also I’ve been told after the first 6 mos , then a year , chance of real remission is drastically reduced . I myself rebuilt my mobility and yep I’ve run a few times , power walked , got off meds but it’s still in my body . Levels of healing doesn’t mean it’s gone .

My college-age daughter had a hiking accident 5 years ago that triggered a chronic pain response throughout her body. Many MANY doctors and healthcare professionals have been unsuccessful in relieving her pain. Her condition makes it impossible to start a career or make plans for her future. She currently needs a wheelchair to get around, but can't wheel it herself due to the pain in her arms. Dr. Katinka and Spero have given her hope that she may experience some relief after all! She starts the program this fall. We are cautiously but desperately optimistic.

@homeedconnect
@homeedconnect 2 года назад
@@erinpillman She stayed much longer than 3 months. Many CRPS patients need much more time...6, 7 ,10 months. Many find hope and relief early in their treatments but can't get to low pain levels til further along. It impossible really to know since individual progress depends on so many variables. If this is your only/last hope, you may want to sign up as you weigh your decision. The waiting list is long and you may have time to raise funds needed to live there and afford the therapies. Expect to pay much more than they advertise. Sure hope you (or the one you love in pain) finds the help needed.

For amy to be able to bend her leg for the first time in 10 years is AMAZING! I've only had CRPS for a little over a year and really don't want to live with this for the rest of my life, but I am also experiencing the same ineffective treatment that only tries to tackle the symptoms. we need a cure... we need more research to be done. we need more CRPS awareness in general... its a very isolating...

Watching your videos, I literally couldn’t stop crying, because to see how loving and caring you and your staff are, is something I didn’t experience in any clinic, in 12 years of CRPS and visiting every possible clinic in Germany... I have CRPS in both legs up to my hips, so severely, that I hadn’t been able to walk,stand or even touch the floor with my feet, since 2012. that was the year when everything spread from my left leg to my right... I really tried every treatment available... yesterday I just stumbled upon one of your videos and was immediately hooked, because everything you said about your treatment theory makes so much sense to me... If I could, I would snap and start treatment tomorrow 😀. I would love to know, where the patients stay during those 12 weeks? Is it like a hospital ward? Or do they stay in a hotel? I’m praying, that one day I get the chance to fly over to the US to start treatment at your clinic 😊🙏🏼Katy

@margauxf4321
@margauxf4321 3 года назад
Please! Let there be a tiered scale based on income. Chronic pain affects all social classes, but it's the "working" classes most negatively affected due to not being able to work our typical hourly jobs. If by some miracle the state recognizes crps and grants disability, that's still not a livable wage. We have to scour through other possible benefits like WIC or SNAP just to EAT.... And that's only if paperwork is accepted and approved. For me, I don't have dependants, so I have never qualified for assistance, and have relied on the fasfa stipend from school. NOW. How tf do I pay full price for a program like this?? I respect their time and innovation, LORD I DO, but the fact is, the poor and working classes will continue to suffer in silence, surviving on $600/mo.

Dr. Katinka van der Merwe oh yes I would, thank you so much. 💓 By the way I think it’s absolutely wonderful what you’re doing. CRPS is such an absolute monster, for me it was localised and managed to live a fairly normal life but then was hit by a drunk driver about four years in and it swiftly spread everywhere, but on more optimistic notes, though I know very little about the practices you do, the idea of ccalming the nervous system, resetting the nervous system makes so much sense given the disease pathology. Wishing you every success and I hope to see this practitioner in Belgium (currently in Spain). Thank you again.

Very interesting program and great to see such amazing results. We need more doctors out there like you and your team. How long does your program take to complete? I live in California and wouldn't be able to afford a long trip, nor multiple trips... I've had CRPS for 7 years now and just want my life back again so I can at least work to earn an income... I can't even imagine what it would be like to be "healed", or even pain free for any length of time for that matter!
