One of the functions of the Integumentary System is the negative feedback, homeostatic control of the core body temperature. This is called thermoregulation.
This center is located just above the brain stem and secretes hormones that help regulate body temperature. It is this part of your body that orchestrates the many functions that help to control body temperature. All of the autonomic responses of our bodies are controlled by the hypothalamus. It processes the sensory input that the body receives and passes it to the correct area of the brain and body for action. It is this part of your brain that allows you to feel both hot and cold.
