About the Rolf Method of Structural Integration

The Rolf method of Structural Integration is a hands on manipulation of both fascia and  connective tissue, with the aim of re-organizing the body, such that movement and postural alignment are restored.  This provides relief from pain, corrects muscular dysfunction and improves performance in daily, professional or sporting activities.

During our lives we a crew injuries, our posture distorts through vocational repetitive activity, and we suffer the effects of gravity as we age.  These changes compromise our physical ease of movement, and alter the freedom in which we live and function in the world.

The Rolf method of Structural Integration is a systematic way of releasing and rebalancing the fascial guy ropes of our body; such that the bones, joint congruence, muscular balance, and bodily segmental organization can realign themselves in the field of gravity.

A well aligned body with good posture enables one to move with enhanced energetic flow and freedom, hugely increasing quality of life.  The ideal behind this is that structure enables function, and so the more congruent our structure, the greater our potential to express ourselves.
