What is Rolfing Structural Integration?
Rolfing® Structural Integration is a unique system of bodywork that aligns and balances the entire physical structure. By releasing chronic tension patterns in the body’s connective tissue, long held postural patterns are shed for a more relaxed, centered way of being.
People riddled with chronic pain and stress find relief from their symptoms. Students of yoga, the martial arts, and meditation, dancers and athletes all benefit from Rolfing with increased sensitivity to physical alignment and function. Those involved in psychological exploration find greater connection to their body and emotions.
Research has shown that Rolfing reduces spinal curvature, enhances neurological functioning, creates more efficient use of muscles, allows the body to conserve energy, and refines patterns of movement. It significantly reduces chronic stress and changes body structure.
Rolfing achieves these amazing results through the skillful manipulation of the body’s connective tissue system in a way that gradually brings the whole human structure into balance with gravity. |
