Characteristics, function and treatment of musle fascia

Glavni cilj ovog rada je dati detaljniji uvid u mišićnu fasciju, obzirom na relativnu neistraženost tog dijela lokomotornog sustava u odnosu na ostale njegove sastavnice. U prvom dijelu opisuju se svojstva mišićne fascije, odnosna objašnjava se njen sastav, slojevi i izgled. Drugi dio rada usmjeren je na funkcije mišićne fascije. Opisana je uloga fascije u mišićnom, odnosno živčano-mišićnom sustavu. U posljednjem dijelu navedeni su i objašnjeni najčešći i najrašireniji načini tretiranja mišićne fascije čiji se utjecaji ipak trebaju još dublje istražiti i objasniti.The main goal of the present thesis was to give detailed insight of musle fascia, regarding relative insufficient exploration of this part of locomotor system in relation to its other components. In first part are described characteristics of muscle fascia, its composition, layers and looks. Second part of thesis is focused on function of myofascia. Here is described fascial role in muscular and neuromuscular system. In last part are listed and described most common and spreaded types of myofascial treatment, whose effects however still need deeper investigation and explanation
