What is Fascia?
Fascia is a dense connective tissue surrounding and covering every muscle-muscle fibers, blood vessels, bones, nerve fibers and internal organs. Fascia is a continuous connective tissue that exists from head to toe without interruption. In this way you can see that a restriction due to trauma, injury or scar tissue can affect other parts of the body.
