How to use "Fascia" in context?
In anatomy, fascia (; from Latin fascia, "strip, band") is a thin sheath of tissue that covers the body but is not part of the bone. It is the most superficial layer of the body and is composed of fibrous connective tissue. Fascia rhythmically contracts and releases to maintain the distribution of tension in the body. Fascia also supports and cushions underlying organs and tissues while they move.
