Biology Beyond the Obvious is a 9-part blog series reframing overlooked systems—fascia, mitochondria, gut, skin, water, senses—through the nervous system lens.

Menopause removes the sensory buffers that kept fascial tension below the threshold of perception. What was always there gets louder. The tissue has been holding the record — now you can finally hear it.
