Facts About The Nervous System
There are three segments of the nervous system:
1-The Central Nervous System - includes the brain and spinal cord.
2-The Peripheral Nervous System - serves to connect the central nervous system with the various tissues of the body. Spinal nerves at various levels have sensory and motor connections. Messages or signals can be relayed from the tissues of the body to the brain through the spinal cord. The spinal nerves extend outward from the spinal cord through openings between the vertebrae. Once they pass through these openings, they extend great distances dividing into many branches, thus forming a complicated, intricate network reaching all the tissues of the body.
3-The Autonomic Nervous System - governs those activities which are carried out automatically without the individual being conscious of their performance. Autonomic = Automatic. Examples of these activities include regulation of heartbeat, digestion of food, circulation of blood, breathing, etc.
Each segment is interdependent and interrelated. The body is so wonderfully complex that one part often affects another part seemingly distant, remote and unrelated.
The spine is the doctor of chiropractic’s “avenue of approach.” After a careful examination, the doctor will attempt to influence malfunctioning parts of the body through specific spinal manipulations (adjustments) of the offending vertebrae and/or other structural lesions which may be present.
