How about some physiology of the nervous system?

What are the four somatic reflexes we must look at when doing NMT work?

Hmm... Is this really a nervous system physiology question, or an NMT question...

It's both. We can't solely rely on A&P. It has to be relative to what we do as therapists, right?
I guess i could have just asked, what are the four main somatic reflexes we deal with as bodyworkers?
But essentially these are some of the ways the nervous system works (physiology), we are able to tap into these physiological properties as bodyworkers.

a hint: they are all based of of the reflex arc

P.S. The hint wasn't for you Joseph!
