“In the simplest possible terms, the ECM is involved in every process and function of the body. It also serves as the body’s intranet – a private internal communication network. The ECM makes sure all the cells are in communication with all the other cells, creating a body-wide signaling network (Oschman 2003, Langevin 2006) that transmits mechanical signals such as strain and vibration throughout the entire organism via the fascial web.”
