FASCIA, FABRICA OR FABRIC – On the Origin of Fascia
Preeminent embryologist Jaap van der Wal, MD, PhD, discusses the intersections between biotensegrity, embryology and fascia. Former associate professor in Anatomy and Embryology at the University of Maastricht, Holland, and a teacher of courses in Philosophy of Science and Medical Anthropology, Dr. van der Wal now devotes his energy to teaching Embryosophy with his worldwide project “Embryo in Motion”.
Fascia: What has happened in the last 10 years of anatomical research?
In 2015 veterinary Vibeke S Elbrønd published the first report on Fascia and horses. To make that happen she had to learn all there was regarding fascia, she had to become a fascia expert. When meeting her in Copenhagen in February The Fascia Guide asked this expert: What has happened in the last 10 years of anatomical research. The answer became this animation.
De Humani Corporis Fabrica – Fascia as the Fabric of the body
In this essay the author will also have to address the matter of How to Define Fascia. He will approach the issue from the two domains of science he stands for: anatomy and embryology. And he will do so applying the phenomenological approach which he has been able to learn during his decennia long experience as a teacher in dynamic morphology and embryology.
The Architecture of the Connective Tissue in the Musculoskeletal System—An Often Overlooked Functional Parameter as to Proprioception in the Locomotor Apparatus
The architecture of the connective tissue, in- cluding structures such as fasciae, sheaths, and membranes, is more important for understand- ing functional meaning than is more traditional anatomy, whose anatomical dissection method neglects and denies the continuity of the connective tissue as integrating matrix of the body.
