Central Nervous System

The spinal nerve impulses journey to and from the brain along the spinal cord which allows the brain to monitor and regulate processes such as digestion, breathing and coordination.

In this hectic, stressful life we lead trying to juggle, work, children, duties, play etc… we strain and stress our bodies without giving a moments thought, this stress needs to be released somehow for our bodies and mind to recover.

Yoga stretches and cleanses the nerves of the spinal cord which clears toxins from the tissues, which then stabilizes the response of the nervous system to stress, removing persistent muscular tension produced by stress alerts from the central nervous system thus calming the involuntary symptoms of threat such as racing heart, anxiety, sweat etc… provoked by the sympathetic nervous system and its emergency coping system.

A healthy nervous system will keep all the muscles, organs and tissues of the body working with greater efficiency, giving sharper sensory perception while bringing vitality and nourishment to the body.

Spinal nerves connect your spinal cord to the rest of your body, depending where they depart they supply the different parts of your body, so when you stimulate the spine, you are in fact stimulating the entire body and its many systems:-

Cervical Region- Head, neck, shoulders, arms, hands and diaphragm

Thoracic Region – Chest and abdomen

Lumbar Region – Lower back, partial thighs and legs

Sacral Region – Buttocks legs and feet, anal, genitals
