Occasionally
you hear someone speak about Rolfing. It’s quite possible that you or someone
you know has experienced it. What is Rolfing-Structural Integration? It is an
inquiry into the optimal functioning of the human being, to be nothing short of
the whole truth. It is a system of body re-education and manipulation
originally known as structural integration and the product of 50 years of study
and practice by creator, Dr. Ida P. Rolf. Originally an organic chemist with
the Rockefeller Institute, Dr. Rolf perfected the technique of Rolfing
Structural Integration over many years before establishing a training program
and a professional organization of around 1300 practitioners worldwide.

Rolfing specializes in de-rotating the
connective tissue of the thorax and entire body to bring a certain level of
balance and peace to beings with rotoscoliosis. 

Rotoscoliosis
is a pathology that is ongoing and continuous over time and is always falling
out of balance. The central nervous system is the initiator of scoliosis and
manifests as rotation, counter-rotation, and compression in the structure and
tissue. Since the body is eighty percent water, it is hard to comprehend how
rotoscoliotic bodies become so cemented. The fixation of the pathology
distributes the asymmetry system wide and especially affects lung capacity,
heart space, and body geometry.
