Structural Integration
(Rolfing)

Our body’s structure and posture are not random happenstance. We create and recreate our body and posture in every moment by what we do and what we are not doing. Throughout our lives, we develop habits and patterns of movement. Sometimes these benefit us, and sometimes these habits work against us in the long run.

Every person’s body has a lifelong relationship with gravity, and Structural Integration aims to improve our relationship to gravity so we feel better, move better, even live better.

Structural Integration, as developed by Ida Rolf, aims to integrate our bodies ability for movement and stability, to cultivate more ease, and to reduce limitations.

SI is a 10 session exploration of your body developed by Ida Rolf (1896-1979), where I’m doing hands-on techniques while you’re exploring coordinated breathing and body movements in the area where I’m working.

Each session explores a different region of your body, and we follow this map, or Recipe as Ida Rolf called it. Together, we create changes in your body’s tissues to unlock, realign, and support the stuck and challenged places in your posture.

We aim to discover and enrich your structural patterns to give you a better posture. Or said another way – can we loosen up where you are limited, so you have more space in your tissues so your bones and joints move with ease, strength, flexibility, and grace.
