Visual analogue scale (NRS) ratings for the conditions “heat pain only” and “heat pain combined with CT stimulation” in healthy subjects and SFN patients. CT stimulation significantly reduced of heat pain intensity in healthy subjects (p = 0.016) but not in SFN patients (* p≤0.05, ** of p≤0.01, *** of p≤0.005). The overall rating of pain intensity for both conditions was significantly higher in the SFN patients (heat pain only: p = 0.005; heat pain combined with CT targeted touch: p<0.001)
