Journal ArticleDOI
The thoracolumbar fascia: anatomy, function and clinical considerations
Frank H. Willard,Andry Vleeming,Andry Vleeming,Mark D. Schuenke,Lieven Danneels,Robert Schleip +5 more
TL;DR: The three‐dimensional structure of the TLF and its caudally positioned composite will be analyzed in light of recent studies concerning the cellular organization of fascia, as well as its innervation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fascial plasticity – a new neurobiological explanation: Part 1
TL;DR: A change in attitude in myofascial practitioners from a mechanical perspective toward an inclusion of the self-regulatory dynamics of the nervous system is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active fascial contractility: Fascia may be able to contract in a smooth muscle-like manner and thereby influence musculoskeletal dynamics
TL;DR: The existence of an active fascial contractility could have interesting implications for the understanding of musculoskeletal pathologies with an increased or decreased myofascial tonus and may offer new insights and a deeper understanding of treatments directed at fascia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fascial plasticity – a new neurobiological explanation Part 2
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that myofascial smooth muscle cells are densely innervated by mechanoreceptors which are responsive to myofascia manipulation, and that stimulation of these receptors can trigger viscosity changes in the ground substance.
The role of fibrosis in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
TL;DR: Interestingly, an increase in endomysial tissue is apparent long before any muscular degeneration can be observed, and several avenues are discussed in terms of potential antifibrotic therapy approaches.
