Rolfing is a hands-on form of bodywork that works by lengthening and freeing the wrappings around the muscles, known as connective tissue. With soft tissue manipulation and movement re-education, Rolfing systematically works to organize and align the body’s structure within the field of gravity.
Unlike traditional massage which focuses primarily on relaxation, Rolfing strategically affects the whole body’s structure and function, producing lasting changes over the long-term.
Typically performed in ten sessions spaced one week to one month apart, Rolfing focuses on different parts of the body, with each session building off of the last until final integration. Within three sessions, most people will know whether or not Rolfing will produce the kinds of changes that they are seeking.
