Fascia: Why it’s important and how to keep it healthy

The fascia system is indispensable for the body and is largely responsible for its support. What's interesting is that there are parallels between the structure of an orange and the human fascia system. The fasciae form a network that runs through the body and keeps everything in place, much like the fine, white fibres in an orange hold the pulp together. In addition, both the fasciae and the structure of an orange are flexible, can stretch and contract again to enable movements. This similarity can help us understand the complex and fascinating system of fasciae better.
