More than posture.

The skeleton provides the structural framework of the human body, receiving and transmitting forces throughout the body. Around and upon this framework are muscles, blood vessels, nerves, lymphatic structures, organs, and other tissues that make up the non-skeletal components of the body, or what PAZ conceptually refers to as “flesh.”

In structural mechanics, solid structures can be subjected to tension, compression, shear, bending, and torsion. The interaction of these forces can produce changes in structural alignment or asymmetry, which PAZ describes conceptually as twisting.

When the skeletal structure changes, the non-skeletal components may respond through various forms of compensation. From the PAZ perspective, when these structural changes and compensatory patterns persist, they can develop into a snowball effect, potentially contributing to impaired bodily function and the emergence of various physical complaints.

The skeleton shapes the structure. The flesh follows that structure

According to PAZ, the flesh is not arranged randomly.

Muscles and other body tissues have diverse patterns of attachment and relationship with the skeleton. Some attach directly, some cross over structures, some wrap around them, while others follow specific structural patterns.

Therefore, when the precision of the skeletal structure changes, the patterns of the flesh may change accordingly.

From the PAZ perspective, deviations in skeletal structure may be reflected in the patterns of PAZ Al Kasaw’s disease pathways, namely tension, looseness, and twisting.
