Here, we’re breaking down the seven neural centers and how imbalances can manifest from each hub.
Plus, some good news. Let's dive in!
All of the neural centers within your body are uniquely important and play a vital role in nervous system regulation. At REV, we support clients as they find balance and harmony within all seven centers.
Life happens, stress happens, and that’s okay! It’s not practical or possible to avoid stress entirely, but here’s the good news: regulating your nervous system allows you to become more adaptable to stress so that it doesn’t always wear you down.
Although external factors may distort the balance within one or several centers, the body is innately equipped to heal.
By design, imbalances within each neural center are expressed in a specific way. Exploring the seven neural centers will provide valuable clarity and insight into what your system is expressing and allow you to become more attuned to your body.
Neural Center #1
This center is your foundation, also known as the Inferior Messenteric Plexus.
When this center is imbalanced, you might experience these symptoms:
- Feeling ungrounded
- Lower back pain, sciatica
- Financial issues
- Constipation
- Adrenal fatigue
- Frequent illness
- Anxiety over basic needs
- Trouble completing tasks
- Arthritis
Neural Center #2
The Superior Messenteric Plexus is the intimacy warehouse. When this center returns to a balanced state, negative menstrual symptoms dissipate and zest for life increases. Clients may experience more creative energy, deepened intimacy, and comfortability in expressing emotions.

Key Takeaways
At REV, we believe that symptoms are messengers that have meaning. These symptoms, or powerful signals, act as an invitation to understand and connect with your body on a deeper level. Our clients serve as continuous reminders that nervous system regulation effectively addresses “symptoms” at the root cause.
When neural centers are balanced and more coherence exists within the body, vitality increases. This allows you to feel more regulated and truly connected to yourself and others.
