Interesting subject. This is not to scare you away from this treatment but my wife (who has RSD) had a brief mirror test done. No warning, no therapy leading up to the mirror, the doctor just set a mirror up to reflect her good arm and it put her into a flare quickly. It now frightens her. However, there could be something to this for sure. Those with phantom pain use this kind of treatment also. When it comes to mirror therapy it peaks my interests, not because my wife felt pain from it, its because she reacted to it quickly and others, I've read, have benefited from it. Keep us posted if you choose to try it.
