propriotseptsiooni
Propriotseptsiooni, often referred to as the sixth sense, is the body's ability to sense its own position and movement in space. This complex system relies on specialized sensory receptors called proprioceptors, located in muscles, tendons, and joints. These receptors constantly send signals to the brain about the relative position and tension of different body parts.
Through proprioception, we are aware of how our limbs are positioned without needing to look at them.
This sensory input is crucial for motor control and learning. It helps us adapt to changing environments
