BioTensegrity fascia och biomekanikens felslut, Del 2.

In the first article of this three-part series I provided a basic explanation of BioTensegrity. While a growing number of professionals are beginning to understand what Tensegrity is, a wider population of bodywork and movement therapists need to know what it is not. Bodywork and movement therapists also want to understand how they can integrate BioTensegrity into their specific model of movement and bodywork within their clinical practice. Understanding BioTensegrity has wide reaching implications for massage therapists of all stripes and for medical specialists including surgeons. The father of biomechanics was born 28 January 1608 and following his death in 1679 (penniless and destitute), Giovanni Alfonso Borelli left behind a legacy that would prevail to the present day. BioTensegrity claims more than a tincture of skepticism when it comes to the classic descriptions of animal movement and human biomechanics as promoted by Borelli. I believe that BioTensegrity is one of the most important developments in medical science, bodywork and movement therapy in the modern era.
