Seeing the forest for the trees: Putting fascia in perspective when treating the whole person. (Placing individual tissue perspectives into context)

Fascia is a hot topic among many health and fitness professionals, but why so? Can we treat fascia? As an isolated structure, can we, beyond a reasonable doubt, be accurate in blaming fascial problems for the issues our patients are dealing with and, with that same level of surety, know that we are targeting fascia and making it change in our intervention? I am skeptical about any claims of individual tissue blaming and access, including muscle, lymph, trigger points, weakness, posture, etc.
