Connective tissue (scientifically known as fascia) is the fluid-based and neurologically-dense matter that surrounds literally every aspect of our anatomical landscape. Our joints our embedded in it, our muscles are held and interwoven by it, our organs are suspended in it.

 

Previously pitched aside in the study of anatomy, fascia is now at the forefront of chronic pain management research. What’s coming to light is that the health, stability, and functionality of our muscles and joints rely heavily on this connective tissue infrastructure.

 

Connective tissue is also filled with sensory nerves and contributes to our balance, muscular responsiveness, and adaptability. Not only does these sensory nerves help with our stability and mechanics, they also indicate a link with our autonomic nervous system – the automatic regulator that aids in our internal processes like sleep and digestion and stress management.
