Sensor-Rich Myofascial and Visceral Interfaces as Modulators of Afferent Signaling: A Biotensegrity-Based Mechanistic Framework for Neurodevelopmental Conditions

Key Points

• This framework aims to connect chronic mechanical restrictions in myofascial and visceral areas to changes in signaling linked to neurodevelopmental conditions.
• Proposes a peripheral mechanistic framework.
• Examines the relationship between mechanical restriction and clinical features.
• Focuses on sensorimotor, interoceptive, and hypermobility characteristics.
• Highlights altered afferent signaling due to mechanical restrictions.
• Suggests predictive coding errors in individuals with neurodevelopmental presentations.
• Links myofascial and visceral zones to clinical features in complex conditions.
