Throughout the development of anatomy as a scientific study, authors have been challenged to give a singular comprehensive definition of what should be considered as a fascial tissue. Instead, the multiplicity of synthesis and analysis is the true richness of scientific research: individual points of view and background look at the fascia from their own perspective, sometimes influenced by their own cultural assumptions. No person or organization in science ever have the absolute truth, because scientific truth is always evolving, driven by new observations and analysis of data. Only by observing the fascia from multiple perspectives (doctor, surgeon, osteopath, physiotherapist, bioengineer and more) can we define more fully what fascial tissue is. It becomes the synergistic result of several scientific disciplines (anatomy, cardiology, angiology, orthopaedics, osteopathy, cytology, and more). The fascia is not the exclusive domain of a few people or individual private associations, but of all researchers who journey through the study of knowledge and arrive at an understanding, improving the clinical aspects for the good of the patient, without profit. This article reviews the embryological evolution of muscle and connective tissue to affirm how the fascial system should be ideally conceptualized: an absolute anatomic functional continuum.
在解剖学作为一门科学研究的发展过程中，作者们一直面临着为应被视为筋膜组织的东西给出一个单一全面定义的挑战。相反，综合与分析的多样性才是科学研究真正的丰富之处：个人观点和背景从自身角度看待筋膜，有时会受到自身文化假设的影响。科学领域中没有任何人或组织拥有绝对真理，因为科学真理总是在新的观察和数据分析的推动下不断发展。只有从多个角度（医生、外科医生、整骨疗法师、物理治疗师、生物工程师等等）观察筋膜，我们才能更全面地定义筋膜组织是什么。它成为多个科学学科（解剖学、心脏病学、血管学、骨科、整骨疗法、细胞学等等）协同作用的结果。筋膜不是少数人或个别私人协会的专属领域，而是所有通过知识研究之旅并达成理解的研究人员的领域，他们为了患者的利益改进临床方面，不求私利。本文回顾了肌肉和结缔组织的胚胎发育演变，以确认筋膜系统应如何理想地概念化：一个绝对的解剖功能连续体。
