The Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome Association (RSDSA) was founded in 1984 to promote public and professional awareness of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). The condition was previously known (and is still generally referred to) as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD).

RSDSA has funded $1,255,740 in fellowships and grants. In 2008, we funded $65,896 in grants.

CRPS is a chronic neurological syndrome characterized by severe burning pain, pathological changes in bone and skin, excessive sweating, tissue swelling, extreme sensitivity to touch.
