A one hour documentary investigating a new generation of neuro-psychologists dedicated to understanding the strange phenomenon of Phantom Limb pain.
JACKIE NAYLOR lost her hand in a road accident ten years ago, but still wants to scratch the itchy fingers of her ‘phantom’ hand. After a serious motorbike accident tore nerves from his spine, CONRAD WEISKRANTZ’S left arm was rendered useless but his ‘phantom arm’ was racked with crushing pains. These phantoms of the mind have been largely overlooked by the medical profession but Equinox: The Curse Of The Phantom Limbs investigates a new generation of neuro-psychologists dedicated to understanding this strange phenomenon.
