COURSE - Structural balance: work with the myofascial system

What is fascia and myofascia?

Fascia is a special system in our body that resembles a spider web or sweater. Fascia is a very dense and strong tissue that surrounds and covers all muscles, bones, nerves, arteries, veins and internal organs. The most interesting aspect of the facial system is that it is one unbroken continuous structure covering our body from head to toe.

Myofascia is a specific name for the fascia surrounding and enveloping the muscles. Normally, the fascia structure is loose, bulky and elastic - it can stretch and provide gliding between structures. Trauma after a car accident or fall, overload after a demanding training cycle, long-term incorrect posture, surgical interventions or inflammations create tension restrictions in the myofascia, which, if accumulated, cause pain and limit the range of motion. Fascial restrictions are an important factor that determines how we can perform daily activities.
