The
Pain Gate Control Theory - The Gate Control Theory
was initially proposed in 1965 by Melzack and Wall based on the fact that
small diameter nerve fibres carry pain stimuli through a 'gate mechanism'
but larger diameter nerve fibres going through the same gate can inhibit
the transmission of the smaller nerves carrying the pain signal. Chemicals
released as a response to the pain stimuli also influence whether the
gate is open or closed for the brain to receive the pain signal. This
lead to the theory that the pain signals can be interfered with by stimulating
the periphery of the pain site, the appropriate signal-carrying nerves
at the spinal cord, or particular corresponding areas in the brain stem
or cerebral cortex. Complementary Therapists need to concern themselves
with the first 2 options in order to effectively modify the pain signal.
