The aetiology of mechanical allodynia is still controversial. In the present study, we investigated the precise locations of 25 static mechanical allodynias (SMA) treated by somatosensory rehabilitation (n = 23 patients): the allodynic territory mapped (allodynography) was seen to shrink. The mode of progressive regression and finally disappearance of the SMA was mapped, as was the hypoaesthesia....

The present study aimed at investigating the time span it takes to remove a static mechanical allodynia (SMA) in humans suffering from chronic peripheral neuropathic pain. Forty-three subjects were included in the study and, during somatosensory rehabilitation, their SMA territory was precisely mapped. They then underwent distant vibrotactile counter stimulation (DVCS) treatment. It was observed...
