Phantom Pain Relief for Amputees & Inclusive Dance with Infinite Flow

Post-amputation phantom pain can be debilitating, but a new treatment called hydrodissection is showing promise in providing relief. In this episode of We’re Not Stumped, we explore this groundbreaking therapy and its potential to improve the lives of amputees.

Hydrodissection is a relatively new and promising treatment for post-amputation pain, particularly for neuroma-related pain and phantom limb pain. Here’s how it compares to other common pain treatments for amputees.

Mike Bolland also shines a spotlight on Infinite Dance Flow, an inclusive dance company that is redefining what it means to move, featuring dancers of all abilities.
