4 Key Elements: Fascia as a Sensory organ

  1. Proprioception: the bodies ability to sense it’s position in time and space

    allowing us to navigate and perform everyday activities

    - practice balance and co-ordination activities -

  2. Interoception: the bodies ability to sense it’s internal sesnsations

    allowing us to respond to our physical and emotional needs

    - practice feeling your feelings -

  3. Nocioception: the bodies ability to sense potentially harmful stinuli

    allowing reactions that protect us from injury

    the body can detect stimuli as harmful and signal pain, when the stimuli is actually safe, this can be a result of past experiences
