Using the metaphor of railway or train lines, the author explains how patterns of strain communicate through the myofascial ‘webbing’, contributing to postural compensation and movement stability.

· Provides a selection of techniques from the library of structural integration

· Includes an introduction to the fascial system as a whole, with new points-of-view and new research findings on the fascial system’s responses

· Offers a fun approach to learning essential structural anatomy, comparing the connective tissues to a railway network
