Imagine
living in a flexible and balanced body that is free of pain,
stiffness and chronic stress. Imagine your body at ease with
itself and able to adapt to life's physical, mental and
emotional challenges. If you think your body should feel
better and move more easily, then Rolfing may be right for
you. Rolfing is a holistic form of bodywork and movement
education that can transform your body and your life. Words
can describe it for you, but Rolfing is ultimately an
embodied experience; make an appointment today to experience
it for yourself! |

"So many
therapists are striking at the pattern of disease, instead
of supporting the pattern of health. One of the things that
you as Rolfers must always emphasize is that you are not
practitioners curing disease: you are practitioners invoking
health. Invocation is possible by an understanding of what
the pattern is, the structural pattern of health. As you
bring a man’s structure to conform to that pattern of health
you achieve health. You invoke health." -Ida Rolf Talks
About Rolfing and Physical Reality Edited by Rosemary Feitis
"We are not truly upright; we are only on our way to being
upright. This is a metaphysical consideration. One of the
jobs of a Rolfer is to speed that process along. We want to
get a man out of the place where gravity is his enemy. We
want to get him into a place where gravity reinforces him
and is a friend, a nourishing force." - Ida Rolf
"Preparing the body to receive order precedes establishing
order. Changes introduced anywhere in the body must be
capable of being sustained and integrated by the whole."
- Jeff Maitland and Jan Sultan
"I don't know why the pelvis needs to be horizontal. It
isn't in any other animals. I do know that the
horizontalizing the pelvis promotes a verticality that
changes animals into humans." - Ida Rolf
"Rolfing is more than a recipe; it is an understanding of
the shifting of function." - Ida Rolf
"I don't know what energy is; I know I can change the way it
flows and thus change a person’s behavior – life. Rolfers
are supposed to be experts in detecting and dealing with
change in energy patterns." - Ida Rolf
"Structural Integration is a transfer of responsibility from
Rolfer to Rolfee. This is basic to our work, and one of the
most important responsibilities of the Rolfer is to
encourage the Rolfee to successfully take the
responsibility." - Ida Rolf
"We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our
exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the
place for the first time." - T S Elliot |
