“…Studying the link between pain and the bodily self, it has also been reported that when upper‐limb amputees see their real arm/hand superimposed on the amputated arm/hand in a mirror, they may report relief from phantom pain (Maclachlan et al, 2006; Ramachandran and Rogers‐Ramachandran, 1996). Other studies reported a reduction of phantom pain for amputees by controlling a virtual limb in immersive virtual reality (Sato et al, 2010; Cole et al, 2009; Murray et al, 2007) or a decrease of the skin temperature in the real hand during the rubber hand illusion (Moseley et al, 2008a).…”

“…Dr. Cole and his team developed a novel variation on the mirror box, in which motion data are captured directly from a patient's residual limb (rather than using the opposite remaining limb) and then transformed into goal‐directed, virtual action enacted by an avatar in a VR environment (Cole et al., ). As the residual limb is moved forward, so too does the VR anatomically intact arm or leg; if the subject stops, then so too does the avatar, to encourage agency.…”
