Permanent relief of pain in Phantom limbs after amputation.
Laying on of hands and prayer.
One amputee treated in March 1996 has been without pain for 12 months, after 50 years of acute pain in an amputated foot.
There are an estimated ½ million amputees in the USA, not to mention Great Britain, the Gulf and Vietnam. Further research is required including a controlled clinical trial.
