Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a common and in some cases debilitating consequence of upper- or lower-limb amputation for which current treatments are inadequate. This small clinical trial tested whether game-like interactions with immersive VR activities can reduce PLP in subjects with transtibial lower-limb amputation. Seven participants attended 5–7 sessions in which they engaged in a visually immersive virtual reality experience that did not require leg movements (Cool!™), followed by 10–12 sessions of targeted lower-limb VR treatment consisting of custom games requiring leg movement. In the latter condition they controlled an avatar with two intact legs viewed in a head-mounted display (HTC Vive ™). A motion-tracking system mounted on the intact and residual limbs controlled the movements of both virtual extremities independently. All participants except one experienced a reduction of pain immediately after VR sessions, and their presession pain levels also decreased over the course of the study. At a group level, PLP decreased by 28% after the treatment that did not include leg movements and 39.6% after the games requiring leg motions. Both treatments were successful in reducing PLP. This VR intervention appears to be an efficacious treatment for PLP in subjects with lower-limb amputation.
