A patient with chronic pain due to a reflex sympathetic dystrophy in his hand and arm was successfully treated with temperature biofeedback after several months of conservative standard medical care brought little relief. Over the 18 treatment sessions the patient learned to emit a reliable handwarming response of 1 to 1.5 degrees C. Coincident with his learning, the pain in his hand and arm decreased markedly and remained absent at 1-year follow-up.
一名因手部和手臂反射性交感神经营养不良而患有慢性疼痛的患者，在经过数月的保守标准医疗护理但缓解甚微后，通过温度生物反馈疗法成功治愈。在18次治疗过程中，患者学会了产生可靠的手部升温反应，升温1至1.5摄氏度。随着他的学习，他手部和手臂的疼痛明显减轻，在1年的随访中疼痛未再出现。
