Collectively, the layers of the skin perform a variety of functions (Marieb 2003):• The skin provides a protective barrier against microorganisms, pathogens, mostbacteria and viruses and protection from the elements (e.g. rain, cold, heat)• Thermoregulation is carried out through sweating and regulation of blood flow• The skin prevents fluid loss, distributes essential nutrients to the body andprovides a medium for absorption (e.g. the outermost layer of skin cells arealmost exclusively supplied by external oxygen, and various medications oragents can be administered topically)• Salts and small amounts of wastes can be excreted through the skin (e.g.ammonia and urea)• The skin provides a storage reservoir for lipids and water and synthesizesvitamin D• The skin houses sensory receptors that provide information to the brainpertaining to pain and movement perception, non-verbal communication andconvey indicators of state of well-being and health (e.g. mood, emotions andpigmentation changes – as is seen with jaundice).The number of sweat glands, nerve endings, sebaceous glands, hair follicles andblood vessels vary throughout the body. These variations serve a functional role;for example, the palms of our hands have less hair than the top of our head. Asthe head is generally more exposed, hair can provide warmth and UV protection.Another example would be the concentration of sensory nerve endings – a highconcentration is found on the fingertips to assist with dexterity (Marieb 2003).
Fascia Structure and FunctionsIn the field of MT, the terms fascia and myofascia are commonly used todescribe the various tissues that play a significant role in locomotion (Chaitow1980, Schleip et al. 2012a).In human biological sciences the skin and CT proper have been studied in greatdetail; however, fascia has been largely unconsidered. Historically, fascia hasbeen viewed as an inert shaping and binding tissue. More recent research hasshown that fascia plays a significant role in human locomotion and may be asource of soft-tissue pain and dysfunction.

Fascia Structure and Functions
In the field of MT, the terms fascia and myofascia are commonly used to
describe the various tissues that play a significant role in locomotion (Chaitow
1980, Schleip et al. 2012a).
In human biological sciences the skin and CT proper have been studied in great
detail; however, fascia has been largely unconsidered. Historically, fascia has
been viewed as an inert shaping and binding tissue. More recent research has
shown that fascia plays a significant role in human locomotion and may be a
source of soft-tissue pain and dysfunction.
