    The vestibulospinal tract transmits signals from the vestibular system in the inner ear to the spinal cord to help maintain balance and posture. It has descending fibers that originate in the vestibular nuclei and descend down the spinal cord where they synapse on motor neurons that innervate axial muscles. Damage to this tract can cause loss of balance and difficulty with posture and walking.
