The central nervous system of the human body is primarily composed of the brain and spinal cord. The brain, often referred to as the body's ‘command center,’ directs almost everything we do. It controls important processes like breathing, heart rate, and body temperature while also controlling our thoughts, emotions, and memories.
The spinal cord acts as a communication route between the brain and the rest of the body. It transmits messages that let us feel touch, move our muscles, and feel pain. Our bodies can adapt to changes in our surroundings due to this connection.
Disorders of the spine and the brain can impair these vital processes. Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease both have an impact on memory, cognition, movement and coordination. Paralysis or loss of feeling below the injury site are potential consequences of spinal cord injuries. Additionally, depending on where in the brain they are, diseases like stroke or brain tumors can produce a variety of symptoms.
Medical, surgical, and rehabilitative therapies are used in the treatment and management of various illnesses with the goal of restoring or improving the function of these essential organs.
