What Is Fascia And Why Is It Important?

TriggerPoint products focus on soft tissue, which can ultimately be restored via self-myofascial release and facilitate healing in other parts of the body.

Fas•ci•a 
Anatomy - Sheet or band of fibrous connective tissue enveloping, separating, or binding together muscles, organs and other soft structures of the body

Fascia is connective tissue fibers - primarily collagen - that form sheaths or bands beneath the skin to attach, stabilize, enclose, and separate muscles and internal organs. 

Fasciae are similar to ligaments and tendons as they are largely made up of collagen. They differ in their location and function, though. Ligaments join one bone to another bone, while tendons join muscle to bone and fasciae surrounds muscles and other structures. 

Fascia forms a whole-body, continuous three-dimensional matrix of structural support around our organs, muscles, joints, bones and nerve fibers. Fascia is directly related to movement, as it helps to support the muscles by transmitting force throughout the body. The fascial arrangement, similar to a spider web, also allows us to move in multiple directions. 

But this connective tissue does much more than simply help transmit forces that drive movement. It also helps the nervous system with quick responses, and is a key component in supporting the body during repetitive tasks. A runner will have dense fascia in the calves to support running, a weightlifter may have dense fascia in the back to support weightlifting, and a sitter will have dehydrated and “sticky” fascia in their glutes to support sitting.

Sergio's words : "Any athlete looking to perform and stay healthy needs to focus on myofascial work. Everyday like brushing your teeth!"

Land soft... When you hit the ground, the highly adaptive rubber elements cushion both vertical and horizontal forces for a soft landing. Enjoy a very light running sensation and stay away from pain and injuries.

...but push off hard - Once on the ground, the Clouds lock firm to provide a solid foundation for a natural and powerful takeoff. Simply put: On is the first running shoe that provides cushioning only when you need it.

So you can have the best of both worlds: cushioned landing, barefoot takeoff. Enjoy the benefits of natural running without compromise in comfort and speed.

Activate your power from start to finish - The Clouds act like tiny stability balls, responding to every movement of your foot. They activate your postural muscles and enable you to stabilize your foot strike without artificial support, you are back in control.

Nature improved - Move freely as if barefoot, but protected from the shock of landing on the road. This means less impact, shorter ground contact time and good running form for a swift takeoff. Run more naturally with comfort, speed and no adaption time.

Sergio's words : "I was looking for a light and cushioned shoe that would give me the performance I want. I tried ON for the first time while in Kona last year and I was hooked ! I bought 4 pairs (so I can alternate and have one for racing only) of the Cloud and still my favorite of them all !"
