FASCIA RESEARCH: WHAT'S NEW AND RELEVANT FOR MANUAL THERAPISTS?

Dr. Robert Schleip
After at least 3 decades of severe neglect, fascia has recently entered main medical research as a goldmine for discoveries. During the last few years it became clear, that fascial tissues play a major role in force transmission as well as in proprioception and nociception. This talk will summarize the key elements from the 1st Fascia Research Congress (Harvard Med. School, 2007) and the 2nd congress in Amsterdam (2009) and will also highlight current research directions and preliminary findings. The relevance of these new insights will be emphasised for manual as well as movement therapy.
