Speaker 1: Good morning everybody, and welcome. It's June nineteenth, twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1: Today we're going to talk about the fascia fas cia.
Speaker 1: What is it? You hear doctors talk about it when
Speaker 1: they do surgery, maybe your shoulder surgery and knee surgery.
Speaker 1: We talk about muscle tears. We talk about this part
Speaker 1: of the body which we're going to lovely call the web.
Speaker 1: It's behind all your movement. How do you enhance it?
Speaker 1: How do you keep it healthy again for longevity's sake
Speaker 1: and being able to move on a regular basis. Stay tuned, hi,
Speaker 1: and welcome to Health Talk with Doctor Lenn your daily dose.
Speaker 1: The information you hear on the show is informational. It's
Speaker 1: not meant to diagnose or treat any disease. Any kind
Speaker 1: of complete health conditions must be checked out and discussed
Speaker 1: with your primary care physician. Get ready for the good
Speaker 1: news of the day. God bless you, folks, and here
Speaker 1: is doctor Lynn. Our daily devotional today comes from Psalm five.
Speaker 1: I am the firm foundation on which you can dance
Speaker 1: and sing and celebrate my presence. This is my high
Speaker 1: and holy calling for you receive it as a precious gift.
Speaker 1: Glorifying and enjoying me is a higher priority than maintaining
Speaker 1: a tidy, structured life. Give up your striving to keep
Speaker 1: everything under control, an impossible task and a waste of
Speaker 1: precious energy. My guidance for each of my children is unique.
Speaker 1: That is why listening to me is so vital for
Speaker 1: your well being. Let me prepare you for the day
Speaker 1: that awaits you and point you in the right direction.
Speaker 1: I am with you continually, so don't be intimidated by fear.
Speaker 1: Though it stalks you, it cannot harm you as long
Speaker 1: as you cling to my hand. Keep your eyes on me,
Speaker 1: enjoying peace in my presence. Stay tuned for a discussion
Speaker 1: on fashion to a point.
Speaker 2: Seven nine one six four two.
Speaker 1: The word fascia. Fascia comes from the Latin word fashion,
Speaker 1: meaning band b a n D bandage b a n
Speaker 1: d age, or ribbon. For decades, fashia is dismissed as
Speaker 1: little more than your body's packing material or a thin
Speaker 1: layer of connective tissue that wraps around nearly everything in
Speaker 1: your body. Today, researchers should discovering that the fascia is
Speaker 1: far more important, a living, interconnected network that influences movement, posture, flexibility, pain,
Speaker 1: and recovery. So what does the fashia do. The fascia
Speaker 1: acts as a mechano metabolic system, a biological system in
Speaker 1: which mechanical forces and metabolic processes continually influence one another
Speaker 1: that transmits mechanical force and contributed store coordination. The fascia
Speaker 1: exists throughout the body in different forms, each serving a
Speaker 1: specific role. Superficial fashion is located just beneath the skin.
Speaker 1: It is made up mainly of collagen and Elastin's high.
Speaker 1: Like that collagen and elastin, it helps to cushion the
Speaker 1: body and protect underlying structure. There's also fashion that surrounds
Speaker 1: and supports muscles and bones and nerves and blood vessels,
Speaker 1: called the deep fashion, as well as organs called visceral fascia.
Speaker 1: Another type of fashion aligns the inner walls of the
Speaker 1: body cavities the parietal fascion. Beyond supporting body structure, fashia
Speaker 1: also has several major functions. Number one helps the body
Speaker 1: wide commit comunication network. Fascia is packed with sensory receptors,
Speaker 1: making it a high sensory in nature. When we move
Speaker 1: or change posture, these receptors respond to pressure and stretch
Speaker 1: by sending sensory signals that help the brain regulate movement, balance,
Speaker 1: and coordination. No other tissue system in the body provides
Speaker 1: more of this sensory input to the central nervous system.
Speaker 1: Number two helps the body perceive pain. Fascia contains specialized
Speaker 1: pain detecting nerve endings, including nosiaceptors, which respond to mechanical stress,
Speaker 1: chemical irritation, and inflammation, key triggers for pain signaling. In
Speaker 1: healthy mobile fascia, these signals up regulate body awareness, both
Speaker 1: in terms of where the body is in space and
Speaker 1: its internal state. However, when Fashion becomes stiff, injured, or inflamed,
Speaker 1: it can increase the activity of these nose receptive fibers,
Speaker 1: amplifying pain signals. This may help explain why seemingly localized
Speaker 1: or muscular pain can persist even without clear tissue damage
Speaker 1: and muscles themselves. Number three it stores and releases elastic energy.
Speaker 1: Fashion behaves like a spring when you walk, run, or jump.
Speaker 1: It stretches under load, temporarily storing mechanical energy before releasing
Speaker 1: it to assist in new movement. Number four it transmits forces.
Speaker 1: What does that mean? Fascia helps distribute and transmit force
Speaker 1: throughout the body, contributing up to thirty percent of our
Speaker 1: overall force transmission. Without fascists surrounding the muscles and their
Speaker 1: individual muscle fibers, muscles would not produce enough force to
Speaker 1: effectively move us. Number five helps body fluids move between
Speaker 1: fascial layers lies interstitial fluid, which exchanged new nutrients, oxygen,
Speaker 1: and waste between blood capillarias and cells. The lymphatic system
Speaker 1: also depends heavily on fascial and muscular movement.
Speaker 2: Number six.
Speaker 1: It supports the immune system as a continuous network throughout
Speaker 1: the body. Fascia contains many of the spaces where immune
Speaker 1: activity takes place. Immune cells to the body reside within
Speaker 1: the fascial layers and the surrounding interstitial fluid, where it
Speaker 1: helps to detect injury, infection, and inflammation. Number seven. It
Speaker 1: supports injury recovery and surgery. Healthy, well maintained fascists support
Speaker 1: faster and more complete recovery After surgery. Fascias often stitched
Speaker 1: back together to help the wound heal and become stable
Speaker 1: during the healing. Could fashia be electrical? In traditional Chinese medicine,
Speaker 1: meridians are channels that carry key or vital energy and
Speaker 1: blood throughout the body. They form a network of pathways
Speaker 1: connected to interternal organs, joints, and extremities, linking the body's
Speaker 1: interior and exterior to a unified whole. Despite being central,
Speaker 1: especially in acupuncture, meridians have also been invisible to the
Speaker 1: naked eye. Western medicine does not currently recognize meridians as
Speaker 1: an anatomical structure in the same way it recognizes nerves,
Speaker 1: blood vessels, and lymphatics. Wherever, growing research suggests that fascial
Speaker 1: networks may correspond closely to the meridian system. Taken together,
Speaker 1: these findings support the idea of the fasci is not
Speaker 1: just structurally similar to the meridian system, but it also
Speaker 1: shares some functional properties. Fash is smooth, flexible, and able
Speaker 1: to glide easily between tissues. However, when fashion becomes tight, stiff,
Speaker 1: less mobile can restrict movement and contribute to pain and dysfunction.
Speaker 1: Several factors may contribute to fascial dysfunction, including mechanics, overload
Speaker 1: and overuse, immobility, poor posture or chronic muscle tension, inflammation,
Speaker 1: injury or surgery, excessive stressing, stretching, sudden force, or trauma,
Speaker 1: fluid and hydration changes, hormonal influences. Fascia is strongly affected
Speaker 1: by hormones like estrogen, which increase connective tissue flexibility. What
Speaker 1: happens when the fascia gets disrupted? Fascial dysfunction does not
Speaker 1: always stay local. When the fascists structure or function is compromised,
Speaker 1: it can contribute to a variety of clinical conditions. Fascial
Speaker 1: related pain and stiffness becomes a problem fragile fascia. Certain
Speaker 1: connective tissue disorders involve true biological fragility of the frascia
Speaker 1: are often associated with joint hypermobility or chronic widespread pain
Speaker 1: looking at something called Elert dan Lows syndrome or Morphin syndromes.
Speaker 1: Also associated by abnormal connective tissue functioning pressure related fi
Speaker 1: F disorders. These conditions involved increased pressure within a closed
Speaker 1: facial space or trauma that disrupts normal tissue functioning, impaired immunity,
Speaker 1: and other conditions. So how do you keep the fashion healthy?
Speaker 1: You feed it diet, hydration, and there are treatments. I'm
Speaker 1: going to be talking about collagen five, a new supplement
Speaker 1: using type one, type two, type three, type five and
Speaker 1: type ten collagen all into one taken as a powder
Speaker 1: and a lemon drink once a day, can make an
Speaker 1: amazing change in supporting the fascia and keeping the fashion
Speaker 1: healthy and in turn keeping the body healthy. You can

Speaker 1: four two one. Remember the fascia can be fed. Talk
