Cutaneous mechanoreceptor feedback from the hand and foot can modulate muscle sympathetic nerve activity
Stimulation of high threshold mechanical nociceptors on the skin can modulate efferent sympathetic outflow. Whether low threshold mechanoreceptors from glabrous skin are similarly capable of modulating autonomic outflow is unclear. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of c...
