Hypermobility
Hypermobile people build up enormous tension in their muscles that give painful tension in the joint, and they often get nerves pinched.
Straining – Lumbago
Lumbago follows the same pattern as hyper-extension. We usually have built up tension and stiffness that eventually impair the reaction of the nerves and muscles of the rigid area.
Hyper-extension
In places where the body has become stiff and numb the nervous system cannot signal the situation as quickly as it should so that we can control our movements.
Injuries
One can distinguish between damage caused by wear and strain and injuries that come from external trauma or accidents. An uncertain cause on the scale is the accidents that occur due to a body having reduced function over a longer period and that is damaged as a result of that.

Thanks to the linked connective tissues, we can absorb a shock throughout the body. A blow to the foot from a stone can thus provide an impact at the end of that connective chain, right up to the base of the skull.
Lack of Sulphur and Vitamin C
Fascia has different firmness depending on how well the collagen is deposited into the tissue.
