Abstract
Henry Head, a British neurologist, carved a name for himself in the Western Medicine Annals for his contribution to the creation of dermatome maps. Segment therapy stands as one of the therapeutic modalities making up neural-therapeutic medicine, and this paper is within the theoretical and experimental support frame of the study of its utilization. The hypotheses proposed by Head in terms of association and interrelation of cutaneous and visceral sensitivity can be deemed as a contribution to the neural-anatomic physiologic grounds for not only neural-therapy, but also general medicine. This paper constitutes a historic review of one of the least known parts of his work, devoted to visceral-disease-referred pain and visceral-disease-associated mental changes. (MÉD.UIS. 2013;26(2):33-44).
