SensTrain fits into your daily routine, so no need for a hospital appointment or clinic visit to have your daily SDT therapy.

The dual mode device is simple: No leads, No wires, No fuss. Sit back, select your therapy program, pop on the self adhesive pad, connect to the tablet and be guided through the session.

If you need support at any time, our team of healthcare advisors are here to help.

  • Fits a Wide Range of Shapes & Sizes

    The NeuroTraining pad is lightweight, comfortable, and flexible, designed to fit all shapes & sizes. The stimulation settings can be individually adjusted for each of the 12 points to suit your sensitivity, ensuring SensTrain works for you everyday.

  • Patented Software-Driven Therapy

    The SensTrain App guides you through your daily sessions. Use the tablet to identify the type & location of stimulations you feel on the NeuroTraining pad. Over time your accuracy will improve, leading to neuroplastic change & retraining your brain.

  • Outsmart Phantom Limb Pain

    After completing the 4-week Core Therapy, your brain's ability to recognise and process signals will have significantly improved through cortical reorganisation. Your brain's map of your body is changing and it is less confused about how to deal with signals from your residual limb.

  • A Device for Life, Improve and Maintain

    The SensTrain Neuro-PL has additional therapy programs of 5 and 10-day cycles. These flexible programs are designed to be used every 12 weeks, helping you improve and maintain your progress. Keep your therapy on track & continue improving your results over time.

SensTrain Neuro-PL

The Neuro-PL combines two clinically proven modes to target both phantom & residual limb pain. This combination therapy approach can be selected in the mySensTrain software on the tablet where you will be able to select the correct mode, apply the appropriate pad and start your therapy programme on screen. It's that simple.

The Neuro-PL has a choice of 5, 10 & 30 day therapy program. You start with the 30 day therapy program and top up therapy cycles of 5 days are recommended every 12 weeks. All deliver the clinically proven SDT therapy to help remove the phantom limb and the associated pain.

As you retrain your brain, over time, the phantom limb is minimized or removed from the brain’s image of the body; this helps to reduce the associated pain.
  • DAY 1

    Fast Set Up

    Once your device arrives, follow the Quick Start Guide and take a look at our tutorial videos.

    The SensTrain Neuro-PL is designed to be simple and hassle-free. Watch the 30s videos and follow the instructions in the mySensTrain App to learn how to put the device on, adjust the stimulation settings, and get started with your therapy.

  • DAYS 2-14

    Early Progress

    Your therapy starts off at Level 1; this is the least difficult but still likely to be a challenge. In level 1 you will have the opportunity to get to know how to use the SensTrain Neuro-PL, whilst learning which settings work best for you.

    Through consistent and regular use, many will begin to notice an effect on their phantom limb pain within just 2 weeks. You can track your progress and performance in the app.

  • DAYS 15-30

    Continued Improvement & Achievements

    Each day, as you progress, you’ll
    unlock more challenging levels. The neuroplastic changes should really be starting to take effect. The goal is to continue daily use to help your brain re-learn neural pathways that have been
    lost through amputation. This is the start of the cortical reorganisation process, which can lead to long-term pain relief.

    We’ve also added some fun, motivational elements to keep you engaged! You’ll collect trophies, gems & streaks based on your regular usage and levels completed. It’s a simple way to track your progress and stay motivated throughout your therapy.

    Continue with your daily sessions to keep improving. Consistency is Key.

  • MONTHS 2+

    Maintenance & Support

    Following your 30 day Core Therapy, we recommend carrying out a 5 or 10 day cycle in every 12 week period to keep phantom limb pain at bay. This also helps continually reinforce those neuroplastic changes in the brain.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the two therapy modes for, and for how long do I use them?

The first mode is the SDT (Sensory Discrimination Training) mode. Designed to be used each day for up to 21 days within a 30 day period. SDT therapy helps retrain the brain by stimulating specific areas of the residual limb, helping the brain “re-map” itself and reduce phantom limb pain over longer treatment sessions.  These sessions last 30-45 minutes and the unique Tree shaped pad is used in SDT mode. SDT focuses on long-term neuroplasticity so it's important to top up your therapy. It is recommended to use the NeuroTraining mode every 12 weeks for 5 continual days for 30 minutes each day.

The second mode offers Instant relief. This is a TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) mode. It uses electrical pulses to block pain signals from reaching the brain, offering effective temporary relief. In this mode you apply the specific TENS pad and have the option of 3 different treatment programmes that run for 15 minutes.

How many pads are used, are they included, and can I buy more?

The first 30 days is your core therapy and during this time, 21 daily sessions are required.

It is recommended to have 5 additional daily cycles every 12 weeks.

21 pads for the 30 day core therapy cycle and 2 x 5 cycles (10 pads) are included, that's over 6 months of Neurotraining pads. There is also 6 months of Instant Relief pads included with your Neuro-PL device.

Neurotraining pads in packs of 5 for the 12 week top up cycles, are available to purchase at £59.

A pack of 3 months of TENs Instant Relief pads are available to purchase at £21.

What are the benefits of SDT for phantom limb pain?

SDT promotes neuroplasticity, helping the brain adapt to the loss of a limb by creating new neural pathways. This reduces phantom limb pain by teaching the brain how to process sensory input more accurately, leading to long-lasting relief. It’s a non-invasive, drug-free therapy with proven benefits in reducing pain intensity and improving quality of life.

Why SensTrain is different to alternatives like Mirror Therapy, or Drug Therapy using Opioids?

SensTrain offers a long-term, non-invasive solution without the risks associated with opioids, such as addiction or side effects. Unlike Mirror Therapy, which requires visual trickery to provide a short-term reduction in pain, SensTrain directly helps the brain change the way it visualises the body, providing long term relief. And remember, you’re not left alone with SensTrain – The Care Hub Team provide ongoing support ,motivation and advice during your first 6 months.
