The Mind body connection can be discussed from many different angles. When discussing movement such as in exercise or rehabilitation proprioceptors are a very important aspect to consider. Proprioceptors are the main source of communication between our brain and our musculoskeletal system. These receptors are found throughout our joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and fascia. It is how we know where parts of our body are in relationship to other parts of our body. In a sense it is the old school term “muscle memory” but much more complicated than that. They allow the perception of one’s own body position and movement . Proprioceptors give our brain information that is crucial in adjustment of movement force, position, speed, timing, and angles. They are the key to learning new skills and preventing injuries.
