The spine coexists intimately with the central nervous system by way of tiny neurons scattered throughout small muscles, ligaments, discs, and joints in and around each spinal segment. Normal motion within each vertebra allows proper communication between the spine and brain. The central nervous system controls all autonomic functions. The autonomic nervous system steers all unconscious functions carried out by the body every second of a person’s life. These functions include the heartbeat, breathing, pulse, respiration, and immune control.
