Why does this work? Counter Irritant Theory Gate Control Theory Gate Cells Tract Cells Touch Input Ab Fibers Local Inhibition GABA and Enkephalin TENS, and other Rx Opium, an extract of a poppy plant, has very powerful analgesic properties. It does this because the neurons in the pain system have receptors that bind opiods. Why would the nervous system develop neurotransmitter receptors to a poppy plant? Searching for Endogenous Opium Opiods (Opium, Heroin, etc) are analgesics Opiods act on neuron chemoreceptors Does the CNS makes Opiods? Yes!
