“I felt like my body was let out of a straightjacket as a result of
Rolfing sessions with Adam”. Amy Hayes, Boulder, CO

For over 45 years people of all ages and walks of life have been coming to Rolfing for help with neck pain, back problems, impaired mobility and other difficulties. Others seek to improve athletic performance, enhance personal/psychological growth and improve posture.

The main focus of Rolfing is actually whole body structural integration and functional efficiency, as opposed to symptom relief.  One of the key things distinguishing Rolfing from many other  body-based approaches is what makes the Rolfing method so powerful: In the process of balancing the whole body many symptoms and conditions improve. However,  it is usually an unresolved chronic symptom or condition that first brings most people to give Rolfing a try.

With Rolfing you can:

Improve Posture and Alignment

You will sit and stand straighter and taller with less effort. You will breathe more easily and fully and look and feel lighter.

Reduce Aches and Pains

You are likely to have less pain and tension in your body as it becomes more balanced and symmetrical, allowing for more functional, efficient movement. Rolfing can help restore effective functioning following injury, accident and repetitive strain. People often come to Rolfing for help with low back pain, neck tension, headaches, and recurring athletic injuries.

Improve Flexibility

You may have easier movement and wider range of motion in joints as fascial restrictions are released. Older people will appreciate the sense of youthfulness that Rolfing produces as it restores earlier freedom of movement and grace.

Enhance Performance

Many people experience an improvement in performance in sports and activities they are involved in. Efficiency improves when your body is not working against itself and we enjoy our movement life more.

Reduce stress and aid emotional Health

A freer, more responsive and comfortable body will support you in every part of your life. Many people find Rolfing an aide to their psychological, emotionaland spiritual growth and development. As deep patterns of tension and holding are released in the body we have new possibilities in how we respond to others and life in general.
