The foundation of Fascial Manipulation is the recognition of particular localized fascial points that are causative of restricted movement. The recovery of the movement is achieved by appropriately manipulating the specific fascial points densified due to fragmented HA molecules.
Irvin Korr, J. S. Denslow and colleagues did the original body of research on manual therapy. [2] Korr described it as the "Application of an accurately determined and specifically directed manual force to the body, in order to improve mobility in areas that are restricted; in joints, in connective tissues or in skeletal muscles."
The Times magazine later removed the essay from its website, with a statement that editors had "confronted the photographer and determined that most of the images did not wholly reflect the reality they purported to show". [14] Martins denied that he had warrantied to the Times that the photos had been free from manipulation.
Counterstrain is a technique used in osteopathic medicine, osteopathy, physical therapy, massage therapy, and chiropractic to treat somatic dysfunction. [1] It is a system of diagnosis and treatment that uses tender points, which are produced by trauma, inflammation, postural strain, or disease, to identify structures to manipulate. [2]
Myofascial release (MFR, self-myofascial release) is an alternative medicine therapy claimed to be useful for treating skeletal muscle immobility and pain by relaxing contracted muscles, improving blood and lymphatic circulation and stimulating the stretch reflex in muscles.
Image manipulation software has affected the level of trust many viewers once had in the aphorism "the camera never lies". [40] Images may be manipulated for fun, aesthetic reasons, or to improve the appearance of a subject [41] but not all image manipulation is innocuous, as evidenced by the Kerry Fonda 2004 election photo controversy.
The Fascial Net Plastination Project is an anatomical research initiative established in 2018 aimed at plastinating and studying the human fascial network. The collaboration was initiated by Robert Schleip as a joint effort between Body Worlds , Fascia Research Group, and the Fascia Research Society.
In the MUA literature, spinal manipulation under anesthesia has been described as a controversial procedure. [27] [28] It has had a history susceptible to enthusiastic claims of success and indiscriminate use. [29] With continued misperceptions about the findings and significance of primary research, [30] similar issues remain today.
