The Reflex Arc theory could explain the bodys response to the sti-
mulus of the application of the Cross Patch, which is transmitted af-
ferently or sensorially from the periphery to the dorsal horn of the
spinal cord. From there a response is generated through the central
core efferently or motorically.
:: exteroceptors
:: nociceptors (pain receptors), decompressing them by lifting the
skin
:: pressure receptors such as Pacinian corpuscles by pressing or
not pressing the patch during the application
:: receptors sensitive to stretching such as Meissner's corpuscles
:: temperature-sensitive receptors such as Ruffini receptors (heat)
or Krause receptors (cold). Depending on the sensations experien-
ced by the wearer they are sometimes of cold, reddening- heat and
or even an alternating hot-cold contrast.
