Körperwahrnehmung
Körperwahrnehmung refers to the internal sense and awareness of one's own body. It encompasses the continuous reception, processing, and interpretation of sensory information originating from within the body and from external stimuli interacting with it. This complex process allows individuals to understand their physical state, position in space, and bodily sensations.
The afferent pathways, which carry sensory information from the body to the brain, are crucial for Körperwahrnehmung.
Disruptions in Körperwahrnehmung can manifest in various ways and are associated with a range of conditions.
Therapeutic approaches aimed at improving Körperwahrnehmung often involve sensory integration techniques, movement therapies, and mindfulness practices.
