Kineari,
There's a recent free summary of treatments for CRPS in children here:
Weissmann R, Uziel Y. Pediatric complex regional pain syndrome: a review. Pediatric Rheumatology Online Journal. 2016;14:29. doi:10.1186/s12969-016-0090-8.
Pediatric complex regional pain syndrome: a review
However, physio by itself apparently works well and a recent program just used home based physio:
Iowa Orthop J. 2015; 35: 175–180.Outcomes of a Simple Treatment for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Type I in Children. Frederick R. Dietz, MD and Stephen P. Compton, MD

Their instructions included take home plan:
Treatment Plan for Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy
1) Massage 3-5 times/day
2 minutes firmly
1 minute lightly
2 minutes firmly
2) Focus on the body part that is causing you pain and talk to it while massaging.
3) Always keep it moving, never let it be still.
4) Use it! Walk, run, jump and play as soon as possible.
**Remember, it will hurt worse at first but it will get better!

It is important to take vitamin C in CRPS:
