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...
