The results suggest that facilitating CPM is associated with more spreading hyperalgesia than inhibitory CPM. This implies that poor endogenous pain modulation may predispose to muscle pain and spreading hyperalgesia after injury, and suggest that strategies to enhance endogenous pain modulation may provide clinical benefits.
