Serge
Gracovetsky has put on YouTube the
conference that he gave in 2007 at the Harvard Medical School in Boston 2007.
YouTube can only show videos of 15 minutes maximum. So I have cut the 31 minutes
presentation in about three 11 minutes pieces. View them at.

Workshop details
For over 100 years the electrical
activity of muscles has been routinely monitored in vivo. In contrast, the
activity of collagen is far more difficult to assess directly and its role in
maintaining the function of the spine is still the subject of debate. In view of
the clinician’s familiarity with muscular response, is it possible that too
much emphasis is placed upon the rehabilitation of the muscles rather than the
ligamentous tissues?
This one-day lecture proposes to examine the role of collagen (ligaments,
fascia) in lowering the stresses within the working spine and the conditions
under which the collagen critical role cannot be taken over by muscles. In
short, bones, ligaments and muscles form a tightly integrated system sometimes
referred to as tensegrity. This intricate mechanism will be analyzed in details
for gait as well as other mundane tasks such as lifting loads. Real clinical
cases with normal and abnormal spines will be discussed as well.
