izomhártya

izomhártya refers to the connective tissue sheath that surrounds and separates individual skeletal muscles. It is composed of collagen fibers and plays a crucial role in muscle organization and function. This fascial layer provides structural support, allowing muscles to contract and exert force effectively without damaging adjacent tissues. It also acts as a pathway for blood vessels and nerves to reach the muscle fibers.

The izomhártya is continuous with other fascial layers of the body, contributing to the overall fascial network. This network is essential for transmitting forces throughout the body, maintaining posture, and enabling smooth, coordinated movements. Injury or inflammation of the izomhártya can lead to pain, stiffness, and restricted mobility, often referred to as myofascial pain syndrome. Therapeutic interventions often focus on restoring the elasticity and function of this connective tissue.
