Textbook fascia - basics, treatment, research

Fascia - everything about the important tissue layers

Previously underappreciated, the "connective tissue" - the fascia - has become the subject of a rapidly growing field of research because of the recognition of the important role it plays in health and disease.
Whether you are a practitioner who wants to use the manipulation of this body-wide tissue therapeutically or a scientist, this book provides you with all the relevant information systematically summarized.
With the nearly eighty authors of the individual technical contributions, the editors have been able to attract the leading experts in the various subfields. They are composed of practitioners of manual therapies and scientists who also participated in the first three international fascia congresses. In their text contributions, they rise to the challenge of advancing the basic knowledge of fascia along with clinical treatment options.
