Our Spinal Nerves branch directly off of our Spinal Cord and pass through the spaces in between the vertebrae of our Spine. These 31 pairs of nerves represent the physical link between the two major parts of our nervous system! Take a moment to consider the fact that each and every time we experience the breeze on our face, the touch of a loved one, or even the sting of discomfort; our Spinal Nerves carry that information from our body to our spinal cord, and in an instant it is conducted to our brain where we integrate and understand what’s going on.
More importantly, each and every time our bodies do something like move a muscle, digest our dinner, or even change our blood pressure our spinal nerves are at work! When our Brain receives information it responds in the most appropriate manner sending a signal back down our spinal cord, through a spinal nerve, and off to the region of the body that is intended to receive it.
But How?
Our Nervous system is HIGHLY organized, it needs to be in order to process all of the information that it does. Some of our nerves only carry sensory information from our body in and up to our brain, others exclusively carry output from the brain down and out to the different parts of our bodies. However, certain nerves, like our Spinal Nerves, carry both; even though different types of signals are generated by different types of receptors, and are carried to different parts of the brain and/or body. Take a look at the cross-sectioned picture of a Spinal Nerve below. In the center is a blood vessel, and surrounding it are many round bundles of Nerve Tissue. These bundles are like lanes on a highway carrying different types of information to and from different places, at different speeds. Some sense pressure, others perceive touch, others may innervate a hamstring, colon, or even detect how far a tendon is being stretched.
