Q

descending influences on reflexes

A
  • visceral disturbances cause activation in the somatic musculature
  • somati disturbances can alter visceral function

This is the basis for decompensation of homeostasis (basis for loss of health).

Q

viscerovisceral osteopathic reflex

A

localized visceral stimuli producing patterns of reflex response in segmentally related visceral structures

36
Q

withdrawal response

A

a somatosomatic reflex response that occurs when a noxious stimulus is applied to a somatic structure (complex withdrawal due to pain …)

Q

myotatic response

A

somatosomatic reflex response that occurs when stretch receptor is stimulated and stretched musle receives impulse to fire, while its antagonist receives an inhibitory message
