ANATOMY OF THE FASCIAE
Keywords:
Physical therapy; cervical spinal column; fascias.Abstract
Fascia is continuous fibrous tissue, composed by colageno and elastina. Both components have a circulatory function, a protective function and an organ's burster function.
We separate the fascias in superficial fascia and superficial aponeurosis. They are like a tissue Armour of body. The first one does not exist in the face and in the gluteal region. The second one is present in every area, it is a functional cover.
We will make an specific description of the cervical region, and we will do a superficial description of the fascia's physiology, too. Through this study we will be able to understand how fascias coordinate the different muscular contractions.
So, we verify the importance of these tissues in the motive coordination and in the maintenance of the position.
