Fascia is a layer of fibrous tissue that surrounds muscles, groups of muscles, blood vessels, and nerves, binding some structures together while permitting others to slide smoothly over each other.

This class is a direct fascial technique system with thirty specific routines included.

Fascia is continuous with specialized elements of fascia such as tendons and ligaments. Tendons and ligaments share with the general fascia collagen fibers, elastic fibers, cellular elements, and ground substances. Mechanoreceptors and proprioceptors are found in these specialized elements and report to the brain and spinal cord information on the body's position and movement.
