Phantom limb pain is the sensation of real pain in a limb that’s no longer there.
Often experienced as burning, electric shock, sharpness, or tingling sensations, it happens when the brain and nervous system continue sending and receiving signals as if the limb still exists.
SensTrain helps people understand these signals and retrain the brain for relief.

What happens
after amputation?
When you lose a limb, your brain still holds an internal map of the body how it was before the amputation, this disconnect between body and brain often leads to phantom sensations or pain.
The SensTrain Neuro-PL delivers an effective sensory training therapy. This is designed to help train the brain as to where the residual limb now ends.

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.
