I’m the clinic director of the Egoscue Clinic in Austin, TX. I started with Egoscue years back as a client. Since we opened our clinic in 2003, I’ve worked with several clients with varying levels of RSD. If someone asks me if Egoscue can ‘cure’ or resolve their RSD, my answer is that I don’t believe RSD is postural in origin, and I don’t think we are the answer to RSD’s full resolution.

Now that said, what I DO see is that to the degree posture is compromised, that will literally take the RSD experience and amplify it, make it worse. Now the individual is dealing not only with the RSD, but the increased friction and inflammation that one experiences using mispositioned joints. Anything we can do to help these folks find ways to move that they can symptomatically tolerate is a very good thing for the reasons the article above states.

If I can answer anyone’s questions about Egoscue, I’d be happy to do so. Feel free to email me at the Austin clinic. If you are on a journey that includes dealing with RSD/CRPS, I wish you all the best.
