The Controller manages the delivery of your SDT therapy received by the tablet. It's lightweight with a long-lasting battery and has a wireless charging dock.
NeuroTraining Pad: The soft, flexible and skin like pad has been developed specifically for amputees. This tree shaped pad fits all shapes and sizes of residual limb. Attaches magnetically to the connector, no wires, no leads and no mess.
The my SensTrain app delivers a series of individually calibrated stimulations through the 12 electrodes printed into the unique pad. Mild, comfortable stimulations help you focus on improving your sensory discrimination capability.
Research-backed therapy for Phantom Limb Pain
Clinically informed. Home-based.
Built to reduce pain and re-train your brain.
Developed over 5 years with university researchers, physios, and amputees, our system is rooted in solid science.
- Tactile discrimination training reduced phantom limb pain - Peer reviewed study: Flor et al. (2001)
- Home-based tactile discrimination shows promise - Wakolbinger-Habel (2017)
- Sensory discrimination training is supported and recommended by the majority of global healthcare professionals working with amputees - Schone et al.
-
Backed by Evidence
Multiple clinical studies demonstrate the efficacy of SDT for long-term relief from chronic & phantom limb pain, & TENS for residual limb pain.
-
Supported by Clinicians
Prominent clinicians around the world recommend the use of SDT as an effective therapy however, until SensTrain, it's use had been limited to in clinic.

Choose when to do your daily therapy from the comfort of your own home. Our advisors are always there to support you if needed.
You are in control.
Sensory Discrimination Training (SDT) is at the core of our neuroplasticity-based approach to reducing phantom limb pain.
Our patented mySensTrain software delivers this therapy simply and effectively, guiding your brain to better visualise your limb and ease pain.

Neural
precisionNeural precision
SDT trains the brain to make finer sensory distinctions on the residual limb, sharpening how it interprets touch and pressure and restoring accuracy to a distorted sensory map.
-
Rebuilding the
Limb MapWhen the brain's map of a missing limb becomes distorted, phantom pain can follow. SDT restores this
map through focused
sensory training. -
Immediate
Neural Modulationduring SDT, the brain quickly recalibrates how it interprets sensory signals, calming overactive circuits and easing phantom pain.
-
Lasting
Neuroplastic ChangeRepeated SDT strengthens healthy neural pathways and replaces faulty pain-producing circuits. The result is lasting pain reduction and improved sensory clarity.

Risk-free Trial
If you feel SensTrain isn’t working in the first few weeks, don’t worry—everyone progresses at their own pace. The Care Hub team is available to help adjust your therapy plan if necessary. Consistent use is key to seeing long-term benefits, and even if pain reduction takes time, regular sessions still promote neuroplasticity, which helps in the long run. Senstrain comes with a 60 day money back guarantee. If you are not completely satisfied, simply call 0800-994-99-88 and ask for a returns authorisation number. Then return your complete device as directed, along with its original packaging for a full refund. Note - Refund is for the device only - postage and any subscriptions paid cannot be refunded.
