Clinical Consideration

Although muscle spindles (stretch receptors) have traditionally been

associated with muscle tissue, more recent research indicates that these

receptors are embedded in myofascial tissue. Muscle spindle response to

detectable stretch can be altered if myofascia (e.g. endo or perimysium) is

too rigid. In such cases, normal firing of the muscle spindles can be altered

(Stecco 2004).
