connective tissue: New Age Spirituality Dictionary on Myofacscial Release

Myofacscial Release

A gentle hands-on physical therapy in which the therapist applies a small amount of pressure and an extremely mild form of stretching to the client's body.

 

This releases the restrictive grip of the tight fascia, or connective tissue, thereby relieving the body's soft tissue of pain.

connective tissue: Holistic Health Therapy Dictionary on Hellerwork

HELLERWORK: a system of somatic education and structural bodywork which is based on the inseparability of body, mind & spirit, making the connection between movement, body alignment and personal awareness.

 

During sessions, the structural balance of the body is realized through the systematic release of muscle and connective tissue to restore the bodyÕs optimal natural balance, posture and flexibility.

 

Myofascial release, movement awareness and dialogue are the essence of the sessions enabling one to move more fluidly, and have increased stamina, strength and energy.

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Blood vessel - Anatomy

All blood vessels follow the same histological makeup. The inner lining is the endothelium, followed by subendothelial connective tissue. Then follows a muscular layer of vascular smooth muscle, which is highly developed in arteries. Finally, there is a further layer of connective tissue termed the adventitia, which contains nerves that supply the muscular layer, as well as nutrient capillaries in the larger blood vessel. Capillaries consist of little more than a layer of endot ...

connective tissue: Alternative Medicine Dictionary II on Rolfing

Rolfing: Rolfers believe that when the body is structurally aligned, patients enjoy greater overall health, reduced stress and better posture. The technique, which is also called Structural Integration, involves deep manipulation of the connective tissue that covers the body’s muscles. When this tissue is left alone it can restrict movement, however manipulation of the tissue promotes proper movement and mental clarity.

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Marfan syndrome - Genetics

Marfan syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder that has been linked to the FBN1 gene on chromosome 15. FBN1 codes for a protein called fibrillin, which is essential for the formation of elastic fibres found in connective tissue. Marfan syndrome is associated with incomplete penetrance, therefore not all persons carrying the mutation develop the disease. Without the structural support provided by fibrillin, many connective tissues are weakened, which can have severe consequences on support and stability. A related disease has been f ...

connective tissue: Massage Bodywork Dictionary on NAPRAPATHY

NAPRAPATHY

With influences from osteopathy and chiropractic, this system of treatment uses soft-tissue manipulation to release tension and balance energy flows in the body.

 

The practitioner uses palpation to explore the tissue, looking for rigid, contracted areas of the body. He then begins repetitive, rhythmic, thrusts to gently stretch the contracted connective tissues.

 

Sessions usually last 30 minutes, focusing mainly on the ligaments near the spinal column. Diet, exercise, and postural adjustments help improve circulatory and nervous system function.

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Tendon - Anatomy

The origin of a tendon is where it joins to a muscle. Collagen fibers from within the muscle organ are continuous with those of the tendon. A tendon inserts into bone at an enthesis where the collagen fibres are mineralised and integrated into bone tissue. Tenocytes produce collagen molecules which aggregate end-to-end and side-to-side to produce collagen fibrils. Fibril bundles are organised by tenocytes to form fibres. Collagen fibres coalesce into macroaggregates. Groups of macroaggregates are bounded by connective tissue endotendon and are termed fascicles. Groups of fascicles are bounded by the epitendon and pe ...

connective tissue: Alternative Health Dictionary on Aston-Patterning

Aston-Patterning: Form of movement reeducation developed by Judith Aston. Its design is to teach people how to live optimally in their bodies. One of its principles is that the body wants to move in an asymmetrical spiral. With one hand, practitioners, called Aston-Patterners, thus move connective tissue.

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Aortic dissection - Overview

As with all other arteries, the aorta is made up of three layers. The layer that is in direct contact with the flow of blood is the tunica intima, commonly called the intima. This layer is made up of mainly endothelial cells. Just deep to this layer is the tunica media, known as the media. This "middle layer" is made up of smooth muscle cells and elastic tissue. The outermost layer (furthest from the flow of blood) is known as the tunica adventitia or the adventitia ...

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Ehlers-Danlos syndrome - Genetics

Mutations in the ADAMTS2, COL1A1, COL1A2, COL3A1, COL5A1, COL5A2, PLOD1 and TNXB genes cause Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Mutations in these genes usually alter the structure, production, or processing of collagen or proteins that interact with collagen. Collagen provides structure and strength to connective tissue throughout the body. A defect in collagen can weaken connective tissue in the skin, bones, blood vessels, and ...

connective tissue: Complementary Medicine Dictionary on ROLFING

ROLFING: Dr Ida Rolfe developed this treatment which considered that muscles had a ‘memory’ which could cause problems unless controlled by the patient. The Rolfer works on connective tissue of the myofascial system to break down tension and create a better balanced body. The system can be painful.

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Aortic dissection - First Aid

It is unlikely that a first-aider will recognize this condition. Call for help and arrange for immediate transport to advanced medical care. In wilderness first aid, immediate evacuation is imperative, by MEDEVAC to an advanced medical facility if available. Transport immediately to a facility capable of emergency cardiac surgery such as a trauma center is suggested, not a community hospital without a surgical service. Supportive care including pain and blood pressure control sho ...

connective tissue: Oceanography Dictionary - parenchyma

 

Definition and meaning of parenchyma:

 

parenchyma - the primary tissue of higher plants composed of thin-walled cells that remain capable of cell division, even when mature. Parenchyma constitutes the greater part of leaves, roots, the pulp of fruits, and the pith of stems. They are fundamental plant tissues as opposed to more highly differentiated tissues. In animals, the parenchyma constitutes the essential functional part of an organ, as contrasted with the organ's connective tissue, nerves, and blood vessels

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Pineal gland - Structure and composition

The pineal gland consists mainly of pinealocytes, but four other cell types have been identified: interstitial cells, perivascular phagocyte, pineal neurons and peptidergic neuron-like cells. The pineal body has nervous tissue, and consists of follicles lined by epithelium and enveloped by connective tissue. These follicles contain a variable quantity of gritty material, called brain sand, acervuli, or corpora arenacea, which is composed of calcium phosphate, calci ...

connective tissue: Massage Bodywork Dictionary on BIOSYNC

BIOSYNC

Nerve impingement in cross-linked connective tissue is a major cause of chronic and sports-associated pain. Through trauma (injury), compression, tension, free-radical damage, pollution, and more, cross-linking of connective tissue is formed. These threads of connective tissue adhere to adjacent strands, thereby decreasing range of motion, reducing joint space, impinging nerves, and generally shortening the body.

 

The BioSync method releases collagen cross-linking by unwinding these locked and hardened strands, thereby restoring the body’s length, flexibility, and function, and allowing regeneration and revitalization of the whole system.

 

The BioSync method, developed by Mark Lamm, NMT, is a sophisticated system of neuromuscular rehabilitation and re-education and has been successful with a wide range of muscular and trauma-related challenges. It is complementary with existing medical and rehabilitative procedures.

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Aortic dissection - Pathophysiology

The initiating event in an aortic dissection is a tear in the intimal lining of the aorta. Due to the high pressures in the aorta, blood enters the media at the point of the tear. The force of the blood entering the media causes the tear to extend. It may extend proximally (closer to the heart) or distally (away from the heart) or both. The blood will travel through the media, creating a false lumen (the true lumen is the normal conduit of blood in the aorta). Separating the false lumen from the true lumen is a layer of intimal tis ...

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Aortic dissection - Classification systems

Several different classification systems have been used to describe aortic dissections. The systems commonly in use are either based on the anatomy of the dissection or the duration of onset of symptoms prior to presentation. Aortic dissection - DeBakey classification system. The DeBakey system is an anatomical description of the aortic dissection. It categorizes the dissection based on where the original intimal tear is located and the extent of the dissection (localized to either the ascending aorta or d ...

connective tissue: Encyclopedia II - Becker's muscular dystrophy - Symptoms

People with this disorder experience progressive muscle weakness of the legs and pelvis, which is associated with a loss of muscle mass (wasting). Muscle weakness also occurs in the arms, neck, and other areas, but not as severely as in the lower half of the body. Calf muscles initially enlarge (an attempt by the body to compensate for loss of muscle strength), but the enlarged muscle tissue is eventually replaced by fat and connective tissue (pseudohypertrophy). Muscle contractures occur in the legs and heels, causing inabilit ...
