The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a three-dimensional network of extracellular macromolecules such as collagen, enzymes, and glycoproteins that provide structural and biochemical support to surrounding cells. It plays a critical role in tissue and organ morphogenesis...
Tissue fibrosis involves the excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, predominantly collagen, which can disrupt normal tissue architecture and function. This pathological remodeling can also significantly impact interstitial fluid dynamics and...
The concept of a unified, continuous interstitium across tissues and organs as proposed by Neil Theise and his colleagues in their landmark studies (Benias et al., 2018; Theise et al., 2018) provides an expanded perspective on the fascial system, its role in human...
Muscles are one of the most dynamic tissues in the human body, serving as the primary drivers of movement and stability, the major source of heat production, and interacting intricately with the fascia to facilitate these functions. A. Movement and Stability Muscles...
In the human body, muscles are integral to nearly every form of movement and posture. Muscles are typically categorized into three types: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Each type has its unique features and roles in the body’s functioning. A. Skeletal Muscles...
The fascia, an often underappreciated aspect of human anatomy, plays a paramount role in maintaining the integrity of the body. The two core functions of the fascia in the human body are providing connection and support, and allowing flexibility and mobility. A....
The human body’s anatomy and physiology are highly intricate and diversified, with different systems and tissues performing unique functions. One such complex and multifunctional system of the body is the fascial system, the focus of our current exploration....
Supraspinatus The Supraspinatus is one of the four muscles that make up the rotator cuff of the shoulder joint. It plays a vital role in stabilizing the shoulder joint and enabling shoulder movements. The Supraspinatus muscle originates from the supraspinous fossa of...
Musculus Triceps Surae The musculus triceps surae, often referred to simply as the triceps surae, is a pair of muscles located in the posterior compartment of the lower leg. This muscle group is critical for walking, running, and jumping as it plays a major role in...
Case Study Update: We have posted previously about having success with tremors with an Amish lady. Bobbi Jo started working on her in June, and at the time she had full tremors in both hands and up her arms. This was the result of an accident where she struck the back...
