Fascia is the connective tissue that wraps muscles, organs, bones, and nerves into a continuous web. It transmits mechanical force throughout the body and is essential for coordinated movement.
Key Properties
- •Continuity — forms fascial chains that link distant body parts
- •Gliding — healthy fascia allows smooth sliding between layers
- •Force transmission — transfers force efficiently when aligned
- •Proprioception — contains sensory receptors for body awareness
In ONDA Life
Part 2 "Intermuscular Coordination" trains "transferring force through fascial chains, allowing the whole body to move as a single vector." Improved fascial gliding and synovial joint lubrication are markers of Part 2 progress.
Scientific Basis
Built on: Polyvagal Theory (Porges); Psychoneuroimmunology (Ader & Cohen); neuroplasticity research.
