Abstract
Fascia hydrorelease is an emerging technique aimed at improving gliding around fascial layers. This study investigates how interfacial conditions around fascia affect shear wave propagation. We conducted Finite-Difference Time-Domain simulations and ex-vivo measurements to assess shear wave phase morphology. Both approaches showed that reduced interfacial adhesion leads to measurable phase shifts. These results suggest that shear wave phase analysis may offer a means to assess fascial adhesion.
