    I'd like to know how they induced healthy untrained volunteers to exercise/injure themselves to the extent that some were suffering pain and were frightened of movement and re-reinjury four days later?

    How did the researchers know that some of the patients might not become chronically injured by the exercise/torture? How did the research design get past the ethics committee?

    I would like to have the address of the ethics committee as I am hoping to carry out some research on distraction techniques and pain control and am looking for healthy untrained volunteers with masochistic tendencies.

    The research involves inducing pain in the great toe of one foot by dropping a 1kg weight from a height of 1m onto it. The immediate pain level is recorded.

    Following this a sliver of wood is gently and slowly pushed between the nail plate and nail bed of the second toe. The patient is asked to focus on the pain level from the great toe which is recorded at one minute intervals. The control group of course do not have the advantage of the distraction technique.

    I am rather short of volunteers at the moment but if there is any one out their who wishes to further the cause of science please contact me.
