Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Therefore, the aim of the present study was to test effects of a series of ten applications of CPC prepared with 5% of pepper, investigating the resulting effect on: skin temperature, skin sensory functions, pain threshold, and proprioception. Placebo control condition (0% cayenne pepper) was also tested. It was hypothesized that a series of 20-minute application of a CPC will have significant effects on the measured parameters.
40 subjects will be randomized into Treatment/control group.
