Faszien-Fitness

Publisher's description

If you want to stay mobile, vital and pain-free in everyday life and sport, you should do something for your connective tissue!

This knowledge is now recognised in physiotherapy, sports science and medicine. A great deal has been done in this area in recent years. Muscular connective tissue plays a major role in well-being, mobility, performance and health: the so-called fasciae transmit the strength of the muscles, communicate with the nervous system, serve as a sensory organ, provide protection and material exchange for the internal organs and form the basis for a beautiful body shape. Connective tissue can also do what was previously only thought to be possible for muscles: it reacts to stress and stimuli and if fasciae become matted or stick together, pain and movement problems can be the result. Fascia should therefore be trained specifically - 10 minutes twice a week is enough!

In this completely revised bestseller, fascia researcher and Rolfing therapist Robert Schleip shows how to create a practical exercise programme for everyday life. He reports on the latest scientific findings from research and explains which methods and equipment are most effective for fascia treatment and which do more harm than good. These findings are already playing an important role in the field of physiotherapy and will continue to influence future treatment techniques.
