Steve, I'd be curious to learn the 3 locations the physician was referring to. I'm assuming they are the motor cortex used in most studies to date, the motor cortex/secondary somatosensory cortex that ballerina benefits more from, and the prefontal cortex for the emotional components to pain (which does not appear to be as efficacious as motor cortex). But...maybe he knows of something else. Would love it if you could get this information to us.
