Fascia Three-dimensional anatomy for clinicians

Fascia: Three-dimensional anatomy for clinicians

At the University of Ulm, the Department of Physiology is breaking new ground in the world's only fascia laboratory. Robert Schleip is now undertaking new experiments on the three-dimensionality of connective tissue in order to introduce fascia therapists.

The previous presentation in anatomical books could only offer a two-dimensional view. In Ulm, the ambitious fascia researchers have developed new innovations in addition to lectures on the clinical aspects of the architecture of the fascia using specimens and ultrasound. For the first time on the second weekend of April 2011, it will be holding a course with Dr. Ing. Robert Schleip and the Italian fascial specialists Professor Carla Stecco and Davide Bongiorno M. Sc. DO. give. Bongiorno, an osteopathic therapist and surgeon at AT Still Academy Italy, has developed the DUSTA (Dynamic UltraSound Topographic Anatomy) ultrasound technique, which is capable of imaging the different layers of the fasciae alive. Prof. Carla Stecco from the University of Padua, is considered an ambitious connoisseur of fascial anatomy and especially as a clinician in the fascial area.

Special attention should be paid to the layers and areas, which often show sticking. In addition, other clinically important and to be felt tissue qualities to improve the skills of manual therapists and exercise therapists. Ulm could give new impulses in the treatment of persistent symptoms such as back pain.

Also the main driving force on the Fasziengebiet in Ulm, the Rolfing therapist and Feldenkrais teacher. Robert Schleip will speak in Ulm. Further information and registrations can be found on the Faszienlabor of Ulm University. (tf, 03.01.2011)
