Spinal injury

The spinal cord is an extension of the brain and is made up of a thick bundle of nerves. These nerves carry messages from our brain to the rest of our body. These messages help our body move, feel pressure and control vital functions like breathing. When the spinal cord is damaged, communication between our brain and the rest of the body is disrupted.
