According to the gate of the control theory, a back massage most likely reduce physical pain because of: A) the release of pain of endorphins in the brain. B) activation of certain nerve fibers in the spinal cord. C) activation of the autonomic nervous system and release of adrenaline in the bloodstream. D) deactivation of the pain receptors on the surface of the skin.
B) activation of certain nerve fibers in the spinal cord. nerve fibers from all parts of your body (glasses, mussels, organs, etc) pass through the spinal cord to the brain and a decision is made about what to do with the messages. Thats where the massage comes into play.
