THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT FASCIA
New scientific findings have provided us with a whole new understanding of our body. The fasciae run all the way through the body from the top of our head to the tips of our toes. They form a complex network that not only keeps bones, organs and muscles in place but also plays a crucial role in movement, coordination and sensory perception.
New research has discovered ways in which the unique properties of the fasciae can explain some of the effects of acupuncture, rolfing and osteopathy. This is an exciting new field with the potential of arriving at a new, holistic understanding of the body.
