Gate-Control Theory
• Melzack and Wall (1965, 1983) proposed that our spinal cord contains neurological “gates” that either block pain or allow it to be sensed.
• The “gate” is opened by the activity of pain signals traveling up small nerve fibers, and is closed by activity in large nerve fibers or by information coming from the brain.
