Restoring Life After Limb-Loss
NeuroX Innovations
Limb loss does not end at the residual limb.
After an amputation, the sensory and motor pathways that once served the missing limb do not simply disappear. The nerves, spinal pathways, and areas of the brain associated with that limb remain active and coninue to send, receive, and anticipate signals.
When those signals no longer align, the result can be pain, discomfort, or other sensations that feel as though they are coming from a limb that is no longer there. This is known as Phantom Limb Syndrome.
The experience is real, common, and often difficult to treat. Current options are largely addictive pharmaceuticals or invasive surgical implants.
NeuroX is developing a non-invasive, closed-loop neuromodulation platform designed specifically to address the symptoms of Phantom Limb Syndrome. By combining intelligent sensing with personalized neuromodulation technology, our goal is to provide people with limb loss a new path toward lasting relief and an improved quality of life.
Understanding Phantom Limb Pain
What is happening?
When a limb is amputated, the nerves and areas of the brain that once controlled and received sensation from it remain. These systems continue to send and expect signals, even though the limb is no longer present.
When the expected and received signals no longer match, most people experience pain that feels as though it is coming directly from the missing limb.
The experience can vary significantly from person to person. It may feel like burning, cramping, shooting, stabbing, tingling, or pressure. Some people describe a missing hand or foot as feeling clenched, twisted, or trapped in an uncomfortable position.
Symptoms may remain constant or come and go without warning. Even people with similar amputations can have very different experiences.
It is common.
Phantom limb pain affects a significant portion of people living with limb loss. For many, the symptoms can interfere with sleep, mobility, emotional well-being, and daily life.
It is not imagined.
Although the pain may feel as though it is coming from a limb that is no longer physically present, the pain itself is real. Phantom limb pain is a recognized medical condition associated with changes throughout the peripheral and central nervous systems.
Treatment options remain limited.
Many people are treated with medication, rehabilitation, injections, or surgical procedures. While these approaches may help some patients, they are not always effective, sustainable, or appropriate for long-term use.
NeuroX is working to create an alternative: a wearable, non-pharmaceutical system designed specifically for the complex neurological processes associated with Phantom Limb Syndrome.
