Somatic Output Regulation

Meaning

Somatic Output Regulation refers to the neuroendocrine control over the body’s physical and behavioral responses to internal and external stimuli, encompassing motor function, energy expenditure, and the outward expression of emotional states. This regulation is the final, integrated action of the central nervous system and the endocrine system, ensuring a coherent and adaptive physical response to the environment. Optimizing this output is a clinical goal for improving physical performance, mitigating stress-induced physical tension, and enhancing mind-body coordination.
