ABSTRACT
Fascia is essential to the overall health and function of the human body and is a key component to understanding the human structure. Fascia is both a tissue and a system. The collagen content of fascia is capable of slowly remodeling itself over time, based on the mechanical forces to which it is subjected. This has both positive and negative ramifications. Understanding how the complexities of repetitive force transmission through the body’s fascial web can affect posture and function will guide the physician or clinician to a new understanding of the complexities of chronic pain and physical dysfunction where traditional musculoskeletal models prove insufficient.
