Overview
The main protein that gives strength and structure to your skin, bones, tendons, and fascia.
Detailed Description
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, providing structural support to connective tissues including skin, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and bone. Different collagen types have specific properties suited to their tissue locations.
ELDOA promotes collagen synthesis and organization through mechanotransduction. The sustained loading during ELDOA positions signals fibroblasts to produce new collagen and organize existing fibers along lines of force, improving tissue strength and resilience.
Collagen quality and organization significantly impact tissue function. Well-organized collagen provides strength and flexibility, while disorganized collagen (as seen in scar tissue) may limit function. ELDOA's mechanical input helps optimize collagen architecture.
