The 3-Layered Thoracolumbar Fascia in Best Form

Robert will delve into the following topics with you:

• Being human: Why are the back muscles only marginally different between other primates and us humans? And why is this fundamentally different in relation to the fascia of the back? 
• Outer layer: Which exercises, and therapeutic treatment positions are recommended for the superficial layer of the thoracolumbar fascia? 
• Middle layer: Which ones for the second layer?
• Deepest layer: And which ones for the innermost layer? 
• Flexion-relaxation response as a diagnostic tool: how can it be implemented in everyday life? 
• Three equally important pillars of back stability: centre, spine extensor muscles and thoracolumbar fascia? Surprising findings from the research front.
• Reduced shear mobility between the back fascia: How reliable are the findings? Chicken or egg? And how can this be prevented and resolved? 
• Tight, stiff fascia: Densified hyaluronan or proliferating collagen fibres? Which solution strategies are the most promising in each case? 
• The proprioceptive back: Which tissues are probably less important than long assumed? And where is it the other way round? 
• Fascia fit in everyday life: Which everyday exercises are recommended for which fascial components?
