Individuality: How knowledge of body perception disturbance can inform treatment (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Lewis, J. (2015, August). Individuality: How knowledge of body perception disturbance can inform treatment. Presented at International Association of the Study of Pain (IASP) CRPS SIG, Zurich, Switzerland

To date there is insufficient evidence for efficiency in treatment to determine a treatment algorithm for body perception disturbance (BPD) in complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). We are reliant on what we know to inform treatment choice for the in... Read More about Individuality: How knowledge of body perception disturbance can inform treatment.
