TL;DR

This study induced painful perception in patients with phantom-limb pain using hypnotic suggestion that the missing limb was in a painful position and was able to show that when subjects solved the maze task and the authors induced a painful stimulation they perceived less pain as compared with when there was no competition for attentional space.
