Rolfing Title

 

Rolfing, Structural Integration, is a pioneering form of bodywork originated by Ida P. Rolf over 50 years ago. Fundamentally Rolfing consists of three simple ideas about human structure:

  • Most human beings are significantly out of alignment with gravity (not posture)
  • We function better when we are lined up with the gravitational field of the earth.
  • The human body is so plastic and elastic that its alignment can be brought into
    harmony with gravity at practically anytime of life.

  To create this harmony a Rolfer systematically organizes the body’s soft connective tissue network or matrix. This connective tissue network, known as the myofascial system is the “organ of form or structure” in the body. It supports the skeleton and soft tissue, positions the bones, determines the direction of muscle pulls and of movement - it gives the body its shape.

While Rolfing is primarily concerned with structural changes, any change to the physical body affects the whole person. We are comprised of many aspects including attitudes, emotions, behaviors and structure. Clients often report positive changes in their outlook on life and their ability to handle emotional change.
