The movement of the human body implies the use of fascial continuum. The human body is based and managed by sensations called emotions, pain and movement. The Fascial tissue includes solid and liquid fascia such as body fluids as blood and lymph nodes. This article is a reflection on fascial models and how these are theoretical-scientific visions that are further investigated in this article.

Looking back to the first articles about the terms of Fascia date back to 1800's The article  describes how a surgery that was performed on a fracture of a leg resolved the pain and inflammation, separating the bands of the muscles and different tissue layers, the concept that the fascia is connective tissue, which separates and supports the muscle and its movements. Nowadays little has changed with the Fascia findings. The Fascia is a sheath,or a sheet that forms beneath the skin to hold up the separate muscles and other internal organs.

Dr. John E. Upledger, along with other researchers, discovered connective tissue, as well as neural and vascular tissues within the intra-sutural material. In some circles these findings are still under question, however there is a wealth of sources which confirm and validate his findings.

Researchers have begun to pay attention to Fascia, but connective tissue may hold the clues to a wide array of diseases including IBD.

Fascia with mechanical forces is usually thought of as it pertains to the musculoskeletal system. The function is being realized throughout all body systems!!
