“As in all matter organized into biological units, there is a pattern, an order in human bodies. Rolfers make a life study of relating bodies and their fields to the earth and its gravity field. We so organize the body that the gravity field can reinforce the body’s energy field.” ~ Ida P. Rolf PhD

People come for Rolfing sessions for many reasons. These reasons can have their origins in our body’s histories of accidents, patterns of tension, habitual use and overuse. All of these stresses cause our tissues to shorten and harden. Many of us want some freedom from the aches, pains and feelings of tension and restriction that interfere with our fullest participation in our daily lives. These aches, pains and tensions often arise from the interaction between a specific event or events in our recent past with the established patterns of compensation, shortening and restriction that have built up over our lifetime. Clients come to improve their alignment because they sense this will make a substantial contribution to their well being.
