Stephen M. Levin, M.D., is the originator of the term “biotensegrity” and, during his long career in both orthopedic surgery and manual medicine, has developed, refined, and taught its understanding and applications. Numerous academics and professionals around the world have been involved in studying and applying biotensegrity in a variety of fields, some for over three decades, and the Archive has been established to give their diverse efforts an institutional home so that they can continue to expand, while preserving the integrity and authenticity of the theory and capturing and building on the knowledge Dr. Levin has accumulated.

Bone is fascia
Schleip et al’s (2012) What is ‘fascia’? A review of different nomenclatures, as a starting point and with subsequent posts (Adstrum et al 2016, Stecco et al, 2018), it is clear that nothing is clear: fascia nomenclature is in a state of flux. The definition of fascia keeps expanding and what is now considered fascia includes all the muscles except the cells encased within epimysium and perimysium, the nerve devoid of its neural component, the gut devoid of its
digestive cells, and the organs (kidney, heart, liver, etc.) devoid of their specialized organ cells.
