skin, bone, and cartilage.


2. It’s a “Biological Membrane”


3. It is connected, attached and surrounded each and
every structure of the body, e.g.

• Skin to muscle,
• Muscle to muscle,
• Myo filaments to filaments,
• Muscle to tendon,
• Tendon to bone

4. It creates a intrinsic “WEB” network from cell to Skin
in our body.

6. It’s has got highly “Sensitive Signaling System”.


7. It can transfer, resist, assist and as well absorb the
force.

life, including

• Poor postural habits,
• Stress-induced muscular tension,
• Limited movement,
• Injury and
