All
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Invite research targets by public invitation. To eliminate the effects of gender, the same number of males and females participates. In the case of females, the basal body temperature is stabilized, and the day when autonomic nerve fluctuation due to hormonal balance is small(follicular phase). To eliminate the effects of the dominant cerebral hemisphere, only a right-handed person participates.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Persons who have a history of circulatory disease or skin abnormality symptoms or coldness are excluded. Also exclude those with claustrophobia or those with a history of discomfort due to MRI.
