A good example is the baroreflex. Pressure sensors signal to the nervous system to increase venous return when we go from lying to standing. The nervous system controls the contraction of the veins which forces blood from the legs back to the heart. The nervous system can also increase the stimulation to the heart increasing the number of beats per minute. The net effect of the blood that is returned into the circulation and the increases heart rate act to restore blood pressure to it's proper level.

The nervous system does not regulate the blood. The nervous system is the highway of information between your brain and the rest of your body (ex: muscles, senses, etc.). The system that regulates blood is the Cardiovascular System which means heart and lungs.

That part is called as autonomic nervous system. You have two components of the autonomic nervous system, sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.
