What is it about?
This article examines the biological and mechanical properties of connective tissue and possible applications in the rehabilitative field. We describe the biological processes involved in mechanical force transmission in connective tissue as support for clinical applications in the rehabilitation field.

Why is it important?
Active and passive movement improves connective tissue elasticity, promotes ECM-cell homeostasis, and reduces fibrosis. In rehabilitation, understanding mechanical regulation processes is necessary for ameliorating and developing treatments aimed at preserving tissue elasticity and preventing fibrosis.
