What is Subluxation? | Your
Spine and Nervous System | Kundalini Yoga
Your Spine and Nervous System
Your nervous system controls and coordinates every function
of your body. It is your nervous system that allows you to adapt
to, and live in your environment. A large portion of your nervous
system passes through your spine. It is your spinal cord that
acts as the major cable exiting your brain, travels down inside
your spinal column and branches off into spinal nerves at various
levels of your spine. These spinal nerves then exit between
individual spinal vertebrae and go to the various parts of your
body. To be healthy it is essential that your nervous system
function properly and free from any interference caused by subluxations.
Subluxations can cause interference to the nervous system at
any point along the spine where the nerves exit. This can adversely
affect the function of various parts of your body, and ultimately
your health. The chart below is designed to give you a look
at just some of the relationships between the areas of your
spine and your nervous system. Keep in mind that your nervous
system is much more complex than can be shown here.
