Journeyman,
I'm curious...how does the Gate Control Theory work when you can feel an itch and not the scratch, tickle or much else you do to the area?
If it's a real itch, pain or whatever, I understand the theory. But what happens if the sensation isn't from any kind of stimulus but is our brain lying to us as in the case of paresthesias?
