Ligaments Fiber Therapy

The body has a system of ligaments which responds with tensionlforce that is partially due to the energies within the intra-articular space. Those energies which are within the intra-articular space are particle and wave presentations that can be defined in quantum physics terms. These energies present 3-dimensional forces that affect the tension of the ligaments and these ligaments react to this tension with a force that is longitudinal as well as horizontal.

Ligaments are connective tissue that have elastin, collagen, ground substance, as well as cells and other crystallized entities. The elastin and collagen respond in manners similar to the binding/supporting functions of fascial tissues such as the iliotibial band. The crystallized cells are apparently similar to the cells found in bone which have an electrophysiologic and electromagnetic component which can respond for guidance. The function of the longitudinal force of ligaments is direction. The function of the horizontal force of ligaments is coordination which affects balance.
