Core Body Therapy

Neurological diseases like Parkinson’s can profoundly transform a person’s spiritual life. These illnesses often alter not just how the body works, but how the mind functions, how much autonomy a person has, how they relate to loved ones. Many patients struggle to find meaning and purpose in the face of such deep existential loss. Modern medicine in the West has very little to say about such spiritual matters. But some doctors would like to change that.

A group of physicians and a patient with Parkinson’s recently jointly published a paper in the journal Neurology Clinical Practice that argues spiritual care should become a routine part of neurological care. The authors of the new paper cite a study of 1,000 adults that found that among patients 18 years old and older, 60 percent would like this kind of spiritual support in medical settings. But many neurologists lack the training to provide it, or feel uncomfortable asking their patients about such intimate and personal matters.

The researchers—from UCLA Health, the University of Colorado, Harvard Medical School, and Brown University—offer guidance to clinicians about how they can make spirituality a part of their care—what to watch for, what questions to ask, how to listen. It’s part of a larger movement that advocates for the provision of spiritual care for patients with all kinds of serious illnesses, which has been shown to improve both physical and mental health outcomes.

Nautilus recently spoke with patient co-author and blogger Kirk Hall, who has Parkinson’s, and lead author Indu Subramanian, a movement disorders neurologist at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. The conversation covered why spiritual care is so important to medicine, why neurologists are unprepared to discuss spiritual matters, how the doctor-patient relationship has changed over the past 50 years, and what simple things neurologists can do to ensure that their patients feel spiritually supported.

In a groundbreaking discovery, scientists have revealed that fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds and supports every organ, muscle, and cell in the body, forms a quantum electromagnetic network. This network plays a crucial role in communication throughout the body, potentially acting as the primary system for transmitting information, even surpassing the traditional role of the nervous system.

Fascia, once thought to merely provide structural support, is now recognized for its far-reaching influence on the body’s functions. The quantum electromagnetic signals it produces help coordinate cell-to-cell communication, influencing everything from movement to immune responses. This discovery could completely redefine how we understand the body’s communication systems, suggesting that fascia acts as a fast, efficient, and widespread network connecting all cells.

This new insight has implications for various medical fields, including pain management, movement disorders, and chronic illness. Researchers believe that understanding how fascia interacts with cells on a quantum level could lead to innovative treatments for conditions like fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and even neurological diseases.

The revelation that fascia serves as a primary communication system is a major step forward in the study of human anatomy and could revolutionize how we approach healthcare. It underscores the complexity of the human body and the interconnectedness of all its systems.

Fascia!

Fascinating discovery in human biology is changing how we understand communication inside the body. Scientists have found that our fascia forms a quantum electromagnetic network that surrounds and connects every cell, acting as the primary communication system.

Unlike the nervous system, which transmits signals through neurons, fascia uses electromagnetic interactions to coordinate activities across tissues. This web-like network allows cells to exchange information efficiently, supporting movement, repair, and overall bodily function in a way that complements but can surpass the nervous system.

This finding stands out because it links science, innovation, and human health in a new way. Understanding fascia’s role could influence treatments in physical therapy, regenerative medicine, and bioengineering. It also aligns with modern research trends exploring how quantum-level interactions affect biological systems.

Even though invisible to the naked eye, fascia’s communication network is essential for life. Science continues to uncover these hidden systems, revealing that the body’s inner coordination is far more complex and connected than previously imagined.
