But it came out like the waves of heat in this room, swept over and immersed every nerve receptor in its path.
Sichuan pepper extract, the researchers say, stimulates different nerve receptors.
Due to the inability of the nerve receptors to function appropriately, the muscles fail to have a stimulus that causes them to contract.

These sound waves stimulate nerve receptors which then send the auditory message to the brain for interpretation.
Looking at myself, I decided it was enough, and turned the nerve receptors in my face back on.
