We thank Dr Segal for his comments on our article and for the opportunity to further elaborate on both the technical aspects of our experiments and their clinical significance.

As Dr Segal points out, the choice of stimulus intensity in eliciting H-reflexes varies among published studies. He is also quite correct that utilizing a stimulus intensity sufficient to also elicit an M-wave is generally a good idea, to allow assessment of the consistency of stimulus conditions. However, the selection of our stimulus intensity was constrained by the fact that this experiment was performed in conjunction with another experiment intended to examine a possible mechanism for postcontraction H-reflex depression (manuscript in preparation). The second experiment involved recording conditioned H-reflexes, according to the method of Pierrot-Deseilligny and Bussel.1...
