Rolfing® SI

What is Rolfing® Structural Integration?

Rolfing SI is a form of therapy that helps the body move with more fluidity and grace. It works on the fascia, or connective tissue, throughout the body.

Originally designed as a series of ten sessions, Rolfing SI looks at the body as a whole and works to improve relationships between the different functioning parts. Often, the work is aimed at creating more space throughout the body, as living a modern life tends to compress our bodies. Rolfing Structural Integration works with each individual to reach the highest level of movement and integration possible.

"Rolfers™ maintain that the human structure is not fixed, but rather is highly mutable. Structure can deteriorate over time, due to injury, trauma, habits and repetitive patterns that cause inhibitions in movement, which can become chronic restrictions in tissue. However, structure can also change for the better, at almost any point in life." -The Rolf Institute® Standards of Practice

"This is the gospel of Rolfing: When the body gets working appropriately, the force of gravity can flow through. Then, spontaneously, the body heals itself."
