The Body’s Other System Of Communication:

“…There’s another system of communication and information in the body that has been largely overlooked.And that is the network of connective tissue–known as fascia–that runs throughout the body.

Our fascial network is a secondary nervous system that doesn’t have pain fibers.

Instead it acts like a crystalline electrical transmission system sending information throughout the body very rapidly.  Acupuncture meridians run in this system, and when acupuncture needles are placed at specific points along those meridians, there are measurable effects in the organs associated with the specific points.”
