What is ROLFING?? Rolfing is a holistic system developed over fifty years ago by Dr. Ida P. Rolf, whereby soft tissue manipulation and movement education is used for the whole body. Also known as Rolfing? Structural Integration, Rolfing can be utilized to achieve incredible modifications in posture and structure through manipulation of the body's myofascial system.
Rolfing can dramatically improve a person's posture and structure. Many professionals such as athletes as well as the general populace can benefit from Rolfing. Rolfing is known for its ability to relieve pain and chronic stress; and overall improvement of daily activities.
Rolfing helps develop an efficent way of utilizing the muscles; thus allowing the anatomy to save energy. Research on Rolfing exhibits evident reduction in stress and alterations in total body structure.
Generally, Rolfing sessions begin with a ten-session series. Using gentle techniques with myofascial structures can produce intense results. Next, joint mobilization techniques are used in Rolfing to release motion restrictions. Rolfing also makes one aware of his/her own inhibitions in movement patterns and enables him/her to make the necessary changes.
Rolfing is an alternative therapy that may work well for persons who have been suffering from long-standing physical injuries involving the neuromuscular or musculoskeletal systems. Rolfing is also a good therapy to attain a higher spiritual level, as it interconnects mind, body and spirit.
