Law
of Unilaterality, states that “if a mild irritation is applied to one or
more sensory nerves, the movement will take place usually on one side only
and that side which is irritated.” As an illustration, if I were involved
in a motor vehicle accident, injure my left shoulder and decline treatment
of any kind, then my left shoulder would probably be very tender within
a matter of minutes. Assuming that I continue without treatment and to ease
the pain, drink substantial amounts of alcohol and take a very hot shower,
the next day not only would the initial injury site be in pain, but so would
the equal and opposite side.
