Fascia
(Redirected from Fasciae)
Fascia, a connective tissue, is the packing material of the body.
Purpose[edit | edit source]
- Fascia envelopes the muscles, bones and joints and holds us together supporting the body structure and giving us our shape.
- Fascia organizes and separates: it provides protection and autonomy for the individual muscles and viscera.
- It joins and bonds these separate entities and establishes spatial relationships.
- Chemically it is the collagen in the fascia that enables it to change.
