Proprioception is the sense of self-movement, force, and body position.
Dorsal column–medial lemniscus pathway
…pathway (PCML) is the major sensory pathway of the central nervous system that conveys sensations of fine touch, vibration, two-point discrimination, and proprioception (body position) from the skin and joints. It transmits this information to the somatosensory cortex of the postcentral gyrus in the parietal lobe of…
