“CONNECTIVE TISSUE” ?AETHER ?”I AM”
?CONNECTIVE TISSUE?
“THE CONNECTIVE TISSUE, IN SHORT, IS LIKE THE ALL PERVADING AETHER IN THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.”
—INITIS DR. ANDREA RABAGLIATI 1916
”THE FASCIA GIVES ONE OF, IF NOT THE GREATEST PROBLEMS TO SOLVE AS TO THE PART IT TAKES IN LIFE AND DEATH. IT BELTS EACH MUSCLE, VEIN, NERVE, AND ALL ORGANS OF THE BODY. IT IS ALMOST A NETWORK OF NERVES, CELLS, AND TUBES, RUNNING TO AND FROM IT; IT IS CROSSED AND FILLED WITH, NO DOUBT, MILLIONS OF NERVE CENTERS AND FIBERS TO CARRY ON THE WORK OF SECRETING AND EXCRETING FLUID VITAL AND DESTRUCTIVE. BY ITS ACTION WE LIVE, AND BY ITS FAILURE WE SHRINK, OR SWELL, AND DIE.”
”THE SOUL OF A MAN WITH ALL THE STREAMS OF PURE LIVING WATER SEEMS TO DWELL IN THE FASCIA OF THE BODY.”
—THE PHILOSOPHY OF OSTEOPATHY A.T. STILL 1899
