Chiropractor reacts to cats!
Cat’s ears fold when jumping to avoid hitting and prevent injuries using its proprioception.
Proprioception is the awareness of the body and surroundings to react to changes. Having a good proprioception allows proper coordination and stability, maintains good body posture and balance and improves overall body control.
Lack of proprioception will lead to spatial awareness issues where the movements are not coordinated. This will result in under or over shooting actions or movements where dropping an object or missing it when you reach for it.
With a well adjusted spine, your proprioception gets better as well as better nerve and blood flow throughout the body.
Benefits of good proprioception:
- prevent falls and injuries
- better sports performance
- faster reaction time
- better balance
- better limb coordination
