The Rolfing Ten Series

Text Box: The first level of Rolfing® is usually done over the course of 10 sessions ("the 10-series," although some people come for single or multiple sessions before deciding to commit to a 10-series. Each session focuses on a specific goal and region of the body—for example, the diaphragm and breathing, or the legs and feet. The results of Rolfing® are cumulative with each session building upon the results from the previous one. Sessions last about an hour and a half. The amount of time between sessions can vary and is determined on an individual basis. The average spacing between sessions is one to two weeks. As a Rolfer®, I begin by evaluating your structure. Together, we establish goals for your series. Rolfing® practitioners are trained to recognize your body's structural organizations and to skillfully identify the compensations and patterns you have developed over the years. By evaluating you in standing and walking positions, I can better perceive your structural patterns and how those patterns affect your function. Rolfing® works with more than just your connective tissue; it also works to educate you about how your body moves. Throughout your Rolfing® series, I will help you to become aware of your old movement habits and holding patterns, and will encourage you to experience your newly found freedom of movement.

Text Box: Some people are concerned about having to commit to all ten sessions up front. This is not necessary, or advisable. The first three sessions are generally a good benchmark for you to have a sense whether you are feeling benefits from the Rolfing® treatments. I am also able to work out a treatment plan for specific conditions that focus solely on your specific issues. The most suitable plan for you will be discussed at the beginning of our first session together.
