A positive expectation of the effect of motor imagery will be given before beginning the mental practice of imagination. "This task will generate hypoalgesia"

Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT) is one of these tests and it is defined as the minimum force applied which induces pain. The measurement shall be carried out by using an algometer (pressure device that induces mechanical stimuli) is to standardize the amount of pressure applied in the neck region. The reliability of pressure pain thresholds according to raters or measurement frequencies is relatively high.

This variable will evaluate three aspects. Cold detection threshold, heat detection threshold and heat pain threshold. A specialized and validated instrument is used which consists of a sensor with a resistance that raises and lowers the temperature in a controlled way between 20 and 50ºC.

Heart Rate will be measured by three electrodes located in the left area of the chest. One of the electrodes is placed in the middle zone while a second electrode is positioned on the lateral side, and a third one on the lower left side, below the first electrode.
