Face cooling with mist water increases cerebral blood flow during exercise: Effect of changes in facial skin blood flow
Facial cooling (FC) increases cerebral blood flow (CBF) at rest and during exercise; however, the mechanism of this response remains unclear. The purpose of the present study was to test our hypothesis that FC causes facial vasoconstriction that diverts skin blood flow (SkBFface) towards the middle...
