The thalamus is a relay and preprocessing station for the many nerve impulses that pass through it. Impulses carrying similar messages are grouped in the thalamus, then relayed to the appropriate brain areas. The epithalamus is the most dorsal (posterior) portion of the diencephalon.
One way the brain controls our body's muscles and movements is through electrical messages. These electrical impulses are carried by nerves. The nerves have major routes with smaller pathways running off them. One major route runs from the brain, along the spinal cord and through the lower back called the sacral area. Here, nerve paths split off and go in different directions, some to the pelvic area. The muscles in the pelvic area, such as the pelvic floor, urethral sphincters, bladder and anal sphincter muscles are controlled by the brain through nerves that run from the sacral area.
