Somatic Senses Mechanoreception (touch-proprioception)
Touch: Course-fine touch, pressure, vibration [fast-slow], tickling, itch…
Proprioception: Static and dynamic Joint, skin and muscle receptors and “deep”
receptors… Thermoreception: (hot-cold sensation) Pain sensation
Somatic Senses
Exteroceptive senses (body surface) Proprioceptive senses (body position) Visceral senses (inner organs) Deep senses (fasia, bone, muscle tissue)
Sensory receptors
Iggo receptors: Fine touch, sense of texture
Encoding the Sensory Signals
Somatic Sensory Pathways
Two Fundamental Pathways 1. Dorsal column-medial lemniscus system
(Fine touch, vibration, concious proprioseption)
2. Anterolateral system (Temperature, crude touch, itching... etc.)
