C-Tactile afferents (CTs) are unmyelinated mechanoreceptors  of low threshold and low conduction velocities.  

In humans, CT neurons are found in hairy skin.  

The pleasant feeling observed during a slow gentle touch is due to the interaction of  

CT neurons project to the insular cortex in the brain
