The Nature of Fascia– A review of recent scientific discoveries.
A lecture for bodyworkers & movement therapists
by Robert Schleip PhD
Rather than being a mere passive packing organ, it has become increasingly
clear that the fascia plays an important role in myofascial force
generation, in tissue stiffness regulation, in pain generation and in
proprioception.
This 40 minute video presentation describes fascia as our richest sensory
organ. It covers the 4 types of sensory receptors in fascia, fascial
tonicity, elastic recoil and dynamic changes in matrix hydration induced by
fascial manipulation by various forms of bodywork treatment.
Contents /Chapters
1. Fascia as a sensory organ

A Rolfing® instructor and Feldenkrais Teacher since 1988, Robert became
fascinated by the scientific exploration of fascial manipulation. Robert is
an international expert on fascial research as well as a highly experienced
bodyworker.
