Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mirror box therapy, as described by Ramachandran, involves placing the patient's remaining limb into a box with a mirror in the center so that it appears as if the amputated limb is reflected, leading to the perception of movement and potentially reducing pain. Electroconvulsive therapy, Lamaze therapy, and meditation have not been specifically suggested as treatments for phantom limb pain.
