Myofascia is a flexible network of tissue that surrounds, cushions, and supports muscles, bones, and organs. It also acts as a riverbed containing the flow of interstitial fluid, and is a critical influence on the immune and hormonal systems. In daily life, this connective tissue is an underlying determinant of movement quality, modd, alertness, and general well-being. The Endless Web is a fully illustrated guide to understanding how myofascia works, it supportive role within the body's anatomy, and how gentle manipulation of the myofascial tissue is central to lasting therapeutic intervention and how it can be integrated into any bodywork practice.

This is a great introductory book to the complex study of fascia. The pros are that the authors are very qualified and knowledgable on the subject, and that it is well-written. The cons are that the material did not go as deep into human movement science (kinesiology) as I would have liked, and there was very little written on how to work through breaking down the myofascia. However, this is a great purchase because there is so much information that should be considered before working towards an approach to releasing the myofascia. I would like to see a second book by these authors; specifically addressing how to manipulate the soft-tissue. Overall it was a fascinating read, and worthy of study for anyone involved in physical therapy, corrective exercise, massage therapy, personal training, or anyone interested in learning more about the human body.

I have been teaching massage for over 20 years and I think this is an excellent text. I prefer it to Anatomy Trains, although that is also an excellent text. Beginning massage therapists tend to look at the body as muscle and bone, but there are more connections in the body than that. The Endless Web looks at fascial binding in a very understandable way, which adds a new and powerful dimension to a massage therapist's work.
