Fascial Manipulation ® Method is strongly supported by numerous studies and academic papers about fascial system’s functional anatomy, physiology, histology, innervation etc. by Stecco family and their colleagues from respected universities. (These articles can be found on international online platforms such as Pubmed, Medline, Science Direct etc.)
