This includes the capacity to regulate their stiffness independently from neuromuscular coordination, the role of fascia as a potential pain generator, and its role as our richest sensory organ for feeling our own body. In addition, new insights about an intricate connection between fascia and the autonomic nervous system as well as emotional aspects have become available. These new perspectives offer valuable suggestions for practical clinical applications in working with post-traumatic stress disorders as well as other common aspects in musculoskeletal medicine.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Robert Schleip will review the most important insights from the field of fascia research related to this intriguing topic and will demonstrate practical translations into hands-on myofascial applications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Theoretical part<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fascia as sensory organ: the basis for proprioception, the so called 6th sense.<\/li>\n<li>The four mechanoreceptor types in fasciae: Golgi-, Pacini-, Ruffini- and free nerve endings.
