The Importance of Myofascia in Anatomy
For many, myofascia remains the "forgotten" or even unknown tissue. In anatomy courses, fascia is
often overlooked or entirely removed to reveal muscles, vessels, and nerves-the "true
biomechanical elements." Unfortunately, fascia anatomy and its biomechanical functions have not
garnered much attention over the years. The focus has primarily been on the origin and insertion
points of muscles and tendons, while the interrelationships and functions of fascia have been
neglected. This reductionist perspective fails to fully capture the complexity of the body.
By integrating knowledge of fascia into dissections and microscopic examinations, we uncover a
wealth of structural and functional connections and interactions. This offers a captivating insight
into the continuity of connective tissue and functional anatomy within the body, supporting a
holistic approach. Therefore, it is essential to include fascia in the study of both bodily and organ
functionality, at both macro and microscopic levels.
Join us for our next session, where we will explore the intricate world of fascia, taking a closer look
at this vital connective tissue. We'll uncover its impact on our daily lives as riders and its
importance for our horses as well.
