The brain is the control centre of the body. It receives the signals sent by the senses, which give information regarding the environment, analyses the information and sends messages to the various muscles through a network of nerves that make up the nervous system.
As we age, the reaction time after the arrival of new information increases. In the same way, the conduction times increase for peripheral nerves, which bring information to the brain on proprioceptive sensitivity.
