New research suggests fascia should be recognized as its own anatomical system
A new study published in the Journal of Anatomy, led by Professor Carla Stecco, proposes that fascia should be recognized as its own anatomical system.
The research identifies four fascial organs — superficial, musculoskeletal, visceral, and neural fascia — forming one continuous, dynamic network throughout the body.
This groundbreaking insight could reshape how we understand movement, pain, and recovery, and open new possibilities for treatment and rehabilitation.
