Healing and Restoring Fascia
Definition of Fascia
Fascia is a vital, continuous connective tissue network that envelops and separates all organs, muscles, bones, nerves, and vessels, shaping and supporting the entire body. This living and breathing network resembles a continuous sheet, extending seamlessly from the crown of the head to the tips of the fingers. Its integrated structure means local changes can affect the whole system, impacting posture, movement, and overall function.
Connection and Repair Network
Fascia is not merely a passive protective layer; it actively contributes to biomechanics, facilitating efficient, coordinated movements, and resisting mechanical stresses. The fascial system acts as the immediate environment for information exchange and connection with every cell in the body. Its hydrophilic environment safeguards surrounding tissues by directing collagen fibre alignment, providing a cushioning effect.
Fascia also influences the smooth operation of internal organs and muscles through lymphatic channels and cellular respiration. It serves as the medium for cellular fluid transport, supplying lubrication and essential nutrients throughout the body. As a connective tissue, fascia links skeletal muscles, creating a network that spans the entire body via the myofascial junction. Rich in nerve endings and mechanoreceptors, fascia plays a crucial role in overall proprioception.
The Role of Fascia
Fascia forms a three-dimensional network that surrounds the entire human body, directly influencing its function and contributing in several ways:
•Maintains the body’s normal shape
•Secures vital organs in place
•Enables the body to resist both internal and external mechanical stresses
•Envelops muscles, bones, nerves, organs, and vessels
•Helps create interstitial space at the cellular level
•Protects internal organs
•Separates internal structures
•Assists in cellular respiration
•Facilitates elimination of toxins via its water network
• Boosts metabolism
• Promotes lymph mobility and optimizes key functions of the lymphatic system
• Influences immunity
Healing Fascia with the use of Crystals
The treatment focuses on fascia’s colloidal structure and liquid crystalline components that enable energy transfer and synchronised bodily function. It is indeed this ability of the myofascial system that contains organic crystals, which endows fascia with flexibility and sensitivity that responds to crystal healing manipulation. The presence of liquid crystals in the internal environment of this system enables direct intercommunication and allows the body to function as a synchronised whole. The piezoelectric and thixotropic effect provides insight into how the myofascial system remodels itself and transforms its kinetic behaviour potentially reversing stiffness, fibrosis, or intense localised pain by altering its overall form and density. The piezoelectric effect enables crystals to transform a mechanical pressure into another form of energy, such as light, electricity or sound, and then amplify it. In crystal healing, the piezoelectric effect mechanism is applied to purify and refine the potency of the energies in the chakras and meridians of the human body.
