The Influence of a Positive Empathetic Interaction on Conditioned Pain Modulation and Manipulation Induced Analgesia in People with Lateral Epicondylalgia There was a significant difference in CARE scores between the groups (P<0.001), indicating that the intervention group experienced a more empathic interaction. Both groups showed a significant increase in PPT measures, indicative of a CPM and MIA analgesic response (P<0.001), however the analgesic responses were greater in the group that had experienced a supportive, empathetic interaction (post CPM, wrist: P<0.001; elbow: P=0.001), (post MIA wrist: P=<0.001; elbow: P=0.001).
