People choose to go through the Rolf 10-Series for many reasons. These reasons can have there origins in our body's history of accidents, patterns of tension, habitual use and overuse. All of these stresses cause our tissues to shorten and harden, which then often lead to restricted movement, aches and pains which interfere with our quality of life.
Structural Alignment - Many people are now realizing how poor posture affects there body and life and come to the Rolf Method to achieve a body that is more balanced, feels freer, moves easier and usually feels better!
Chronic Pain - Many clients come for help with chronic pain. These complaints can be neck and lower back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, TMJ or headache pain. With these clients, I work to balance restrictions directly related to their complaint and also balance their entire structure in order to help prevent re-ocurrence of that complaint.
Injury - Clients come complaining of the results of car accidents and sports injuries, added on to the years of strain already accumulated in the body.
Tension, Stress and Depression - Many clients come becuse they want relief from chronic patterns of physical and emotional tensions. They may even be participating in activities such as yoga, massage, chiropractic adjustments, Pilates classes, exercise programs and psychotherapy. The Rolf Method can be a wonderful complement to these and other modalities that you may already be using. In addition, I may also recommend activities like these to support and extend the results of our work together.
Athletic Performance - Whether you are into running, bicycling, golf, yoga, martial arts, tennis, or any other sport or activity, the Rolf Method can help improve your performance. Many professional atheletes have turned to Rolfing to improve their game!
More ENERGY! - The muscles of a structurally aligned body move easier and consume less vital energy which is then available for other tasks!
