What is Rolfing® Structural Integration?

Rolfing® Structural Integration is a holistic system of manual therapy that helps release restrictions in the myofascial system and aligns our bodies in gravity. Sessions can be done individually, but for systemic issues I usually recommend a set of three or 10 sessions. It can also alleviate stress and anxiety by improving bodily comfort and increasing our mindfulness about the state of our body. Rolfing SI is beneficial for those recovering from injuries as it enhances natural alignment and movement, which can increase range of motion and gain ability to access frozen joints. Athletes can also benefit from Rolfing as it may improve alignment, increase flexibility, and reduce muscular tension.

Rolfing can help with:

  • Back pain (Especially chronic pain)

  • Sciatica

  • Hip pain

  • Frozen shoulder

  • Recovery from joint surgery

  • Lack of mobility

  • Postoperative pain

  • Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJ)

  • Tension release following trauma or surgery

  • EDS and Hypermobility

  • Shoulder Pain

  • Neck pain, headaches, and migraine

  • Chronic tension

  • Repetitive stress injuries 

  • TMJ dysfunction

  • S/I Joint dysfunction

  • Improve sports performance

  • Plantar fasciitis, ankle and knee pain

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome

  • Scoliosis 

  • Arthritis discomfort or pain

What should I expect in my Rolfing® Structural Integration session?

Most sessions last 75-80 mins and start with a quick check in, some basic assessments, about 60 mins of gentle manual therapy, and then a period of integration (or movement) at the end.

What should I wear to my session?

We use the 'swimsuit model' in Rolfing SI as you will be both on the table and moving around during the session. I suggest a sports or full coverage bra for female clients and underwear and/or sport shorts for everyone. Ultimately, clients are welcome to dress to whatever level they are personally comfortable and I will adjust.

 

What does it feel like?

Rolfing SI uses different techniques to release and realign fascia, but the typical sensation is a firm but friendly pressure sliding along your skin or muscles. It is not painful, but can sometimes feel like having a knotted muscle massaged. Part of the process is scaling the touch and pressure to the preference of each client.
