Relating to or involving fascia, the network of connective tissue that surrounds muscles and organs in the body.
From Latin 'fascia' (band) plus English adjective suffix '-ial.' Became standard medical terminology in the 18th-19th centuries as anatomy was better understood.
Your fascia is essentially your body's internal packaging system—recent research suggests it's way more important for movement and pain than we thought, revolutionizing physical therapy!
