Rolfing® Structural Integration
A transformative bodywork that doesn’t ‘chase pain,’ however, by focusing on reorganizing the fascial network of the body; aches and pains begin to fade away!
What is Rolfing? Discover the Benefits of Structural Integration
Have you heard about Rolfing and wondered how it might help with your body’s pain and alignment? Rolfing, or Structural Integration, is a transformative form of bodywork designed to realign the body and improve overall function by working with the connective tissues known as fascia. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, postural issues, or seeking greater body awareness, Rolfing could be the key to unlocking relief and enhancing how you move.
Benefits of Rolfing
Many people turn to Rolfing to address various health concerns. Some of the key benefits include:
Improved Posture: Rolfing helps correct postural imbalances, allowing for a more natural and upright stance.
Reduced Pain: Relief from chronic pain such as back pain, neck discomfort, and joint aches.
Increased Flexibility: By releasing tightness in the fascia, Rolfing can increase your range of motion.
Enhanced Body Awareness: Rolfing helps you become more in tune with your body, leading to improved movement patterns and injury prevention.
How Rolfing Works
Rolfing focuses on realigning the body through a series of hands-on techniques. Developed by Dr. Ida Rolf, this method targets the fascia—the tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and organs. When fascia tightens due to injury, stress, or poor posture, it restricts movement and causes pain. Rolfing releases these restrictions, allowing for better alignment, improved movement, and a sense of overall balance.
“My body is like night and day. The pains that have followed me around for 10 plus years are practically gone! I’ve had steroid injections, chiropractic work, physical therapy, at home stretching, and nothing worked until now. I am a forever client.”
What to Expect in a Rolfing Session
A typical Rolfing session lasts between 60 to 90 minutes. Your practitioner, Jessica Dillard, Certified Advanced Rolfer in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, will assess your posture and movement patterns before applying targeted techniques to the fascia. The experience can range from mild pressure to deeper bodywork, depending on your needs. Some clients report feeling immediate relief, while others may notice changes after several sessions.
