While in the hospital, children undergo many medical procedures, in some painful cases, the research in this area is missing.
In this case, researchers at Oxford University and the University of” John Moores”, in Liverpool, studied the soothing ability of strokes by monitoring the brain activity of 32 children.
Half the babies were touched with a soft brush during the experiment, and this group showed 40% less pain activity in the brain than the other group.
“Prequency appears to have soothing potential without the risk of side effects”, comments Rebecca Sleter, lead author of the study.
The study also found that the optimum rate for easing pain was about three inches per second.
In fact, this speed activates a Fiscial neurons class in the skin called”afferents C-attatile”, which earlier showed that they reduce the pain in adults.
“The parents, they fill their children with intuition at this optimum speed. When we can better understand the neurobiological basis of techniques such as child massage, we can improve the advice we give parents, Slater added.
