About Rolfing® S.I.

Based on the life work of Ida P. Rolf, Rolfing™ Structural Integration is a refined system of soft tissue manipulation and movement education. It facilitates the reorganization of connective tissue called fascia       and heightens our sensory awareness.  

A Rolfer works on the fascia to release and lengthen restrictions, allowing the body to find a place of optimal alignment in relation to the vertical line of gravity.        

The result is a feeling of ease and efficiency in the body.

 

If you can imagine how it feels to live in a fluid, light, balanced body, free of pain, stiffness and chronic stress, at ease with itself and the gravitational field,then you  will understand the purpose of Rolfing.
