Brain controls nearly all bodily systems

The brain controls or massively influences almost everything the body does—it is hard to name a bodily function not directly controlled or influenced by it, since even bone healing involves the hypothalamus and pituitary coordinating the endocrine system to affect blood calcium—which makes the brain an under-explored area for primary treatments of conditions like fertility, blood pressure, and mood that aren't obviously brain problems.
