This trial is enrolling 15 individuals with chronic spinal cord injury to test the effect of reflex training in the leg on neuropathic pain. If included, participants will receive 6 baseline sessions and 30 sessions of reflex stimulation in the lower limb. While the participant is standing, nerves in the lower leg and ankle are stimulated to activate a spinal reflex. Participants use visual feedback to increase or decrease reflex activity. Final testing will be performed after about 6 months.
