The episode was first published on the Swedish podcast Fasciaguiden on May 26, 2025.

In this episode, we meet the French surgeon Jean-Claude Guimberteau, who has spent more than 30 years filming the living body. What did he discover when he first realized that reality didn’t match what the textbooks described? And why do his discoveries have the potential to revolutionize our entire understanding of the human body?

Through Jean-Claude Guimberteau’s personal journey, we are taken into a fascinating world where cells move, threads connect, and colors pulse. It’s like watching a film in which the main character suddenly realizes that everything he’s learned is a simplification of a far more complex and living reality. What does it mean for us when we begin to understand that the body is not static but in constant transformation?

The interview gives us a unique perspective on how the living body’s reality differs from traditional anatomical models—and how this new understanding could change the way we think about health, disease, and healing. Is it time to let go of the old models and start seeing the body as it truly is?

Participants in this episode are Axel Bohlin, Hans Bohlin, and Jean-Claude Guimberteau.

Fascia research in all its glory, but how do you present it so that ordinary people understand it, gets excited and start realizing the potential benefits of understanding how the body works?

Together with Sue Adstrum, PhD-qualified anatomist & author of the Living Wetsuit, we discuss how Fascia as a subject could help us bridge the gap between research, practical application and how it relates to ordinary people and everyday life.

What would happen if everyone knew about Fascia?

For more than ten years, we have tried to understand and explain what fascia is, why it is so important to understand, and how our entire perception of the body and of being human changes when we view ourselves as living.

We are not alone in this. Leading researchers such as Guimberteau, Theise, Pollack, and Levy have struggled to get people to embrace the living body.

In November 2024, we will talk about this live in Uppsala, Sweden. This episode is about the Swedish Fascia Convention, why, how, and what it is.
