Guest guest Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Hola Anna, I have treated several folks with phantom limb pain. I take very pragmatic approach treatingf the opposite side, the ear points for the missing limb and the points that still exist proximal to the amputation. I have had good success with this.

Using Richard Tan's Mirror method may be worth a try if this does not work. Also, has anyone tried to dowse for the best points on the etheric field (Qi scaffold / Qi shadow] of the missing limb? I have a gut feeling that pointing needles [with focused intention / Qigong] at those points might work. Anna Kozlowska <aniakozlowska1 wrote: Hello everybody.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 I agree with Doc that you can use most all techniques you would use for the same pain in a physically present leg, just using the opposite leg. - Matt Bauer - Doc Chinese Medicine Monday, September 13, 2004 2:11 PM Re: Pain of the amputated leg.
