Shedding light on how the fascia reacts to stress

Discover my engaging interview with Mary Ethel Lobrigas, partner at Start Living Again! She delves into the intricate relationship between stress and chronic pain, shedding light on how the fascia reacts to such stress.

The fascia, a connective tissue that permeates throughout the body, plays a pivotal role in chronic pain management. While researchers have only recently begun to explore its complexities, the insights gained are profound, unveiling the fascia the most sensitive system in the body.

Fascia refers to various types of connective tissue situated beneath the skin. It acts as a protective covering and attachment for body structures like muscles, while also providing stability, separation, and enclosure for different organs and tissues.

Comprising 75% water and 70% collagen, fascia forms a fluid-rich network that intricately connects and envelops every aspect of the physical body. This fascial web plays a crucial role in maintaining the body's structural integrity through a holistic mechanical system known as biotensegrity. Additionally, it regulates biological functions and enhances proprioception, which is the body's awareness of itself in space and time.

Increasingly recognized as a primary sensory organ, fascia contributes significantly to our perception and understanding of the body's movements and sensations.
