Dissociation of Motor Task-Induced Cortical Excitability and Pain Perception Changes in Healthy Volunteers

BACKGROUND: There is evidence that interventions aiming at modulation of the motor cortex activity lead to pain reduction. In order to understand further the role of the motor cortex on pain modulation, we aimed to compare the behavioral (pressure pain threshold) and neurophysiological effects (tran...
