What is Rolfing Structural Integration?
Rolfing Structural Integration is a form
of hands-on manipulation and education that systematically reorganizes
the connective tissues, called fascia, to release, realign and balance
the whole body.
It may bring dramatic results, such as
• recovery from injury;
•
reduction in chronic pain, including headache and
back pain;
• improved ability to move with ease;
• reduction in physical and mental stress and tension; and
• increased balance and flexibility.
Unique to the process is the incorporation
of Rolf Movement® Integration which brings the structural
work into daily activity and everyday movements allowing for greater
ease and freedom throughout the body.
What is The Rolf Institute of
Structural Integration?
Since its inception in 1971, The Rolf Institute of
Structural Integration has trained and certified over 1700 Rolfers
worldwide. The Rolf Institute, including its international school sites,
is the only organization that teaches Rolfing Structural Integration
and graduates Rolfers. Its rigorous and comprehensive training program
is supported by an esteemed international faculty.
