Carotid Sinus. This is the reflex area of the carotid artery, consisting of various nerve receptors for baroregulation (pressure regulation of the body in sync to the external conditions).
MT's avoid this area because of nerve receptors. Doctors perform a massage to diagnose carotid sinus hypersensitivity which can cause dizziness. It can also diagnose paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
