ABSTRACT 19th century anatomy took a systematic, uniform approach as efforts were made to give each anatomical structure a precise description. Concerning red contractile proteins observed within a gastor, descriptive words provided little or no information concerning the anatomy or physiology of such structures. Latin names were provided describing shape (i.e. trapezius), size (i.e. maximus),…

Although osteopaths recognise the influence scar tissue can have upon the patient, many body-workers have not made the same connection. Scar tissue is often an ignored component of bodywork techniques and education. So it is pertinent to review osteopathic principles and how important and interrelated with scar tissue they really are: Here we outline the…
Since the 1st International Fascia Research Congress (FRC) in 2007 and the subsequent increase in fascia related research, much of which has been published by JBMT and other journals, it is true to say fascia is well and truly established as an important topic in medical science.

The objective of this study was to identify common anatomical locations of densified fascia associated with axillary, musculocutaneous, median, ulnar and radial nerve entrapment. Additionally, a proposal concerning a tensegrity based expansive decompressive protective role of muscles and ligaments as ‘site-specific fascia tuning pegs’ is offered for consideration. This observational report provides a means to…
