| Hello ICWA family, Here is an interesting article if you are into fascial fitness. This comes from Tom Meyers of Anatomy Trains. I've studied this approach as a Structural Integration therapist and this article is fantastic as it explores the many components of our approach to working with the body. This will prove a good read to help you understand how important hydration is in preventing injury, the responsiveness of fascial elastic recoil, developing fascial resilience, plus the importance of training with complex movements that require adaptation. |
| I found the idea that our fascial system is more innervated than muscle to be fascinating. This basically means proprioception and kinesthesia are primarily fascial, not muscular. This is exciting information for STARWRAP because there are 10 times as many sensory receptors in your fascial tissue than there are in your muscles. Apparently receptor in or near the skin are more active at detecting and regulating movement than at the joint ligament receptors. Which means stimulus to the soft tissue structures via STARWRAP application helps your fascial awareness improve thus your ability to react to sudden movements and respond to demands of sport and life also improve. This is called kinesthetic acuity. Enjoy the read! |
