Rolfing Structural Integration by Mark Read-Smith

I offer Rolfing Structural Integration sessions to help remove pain in your body, find ease and lightness in movement, being and emotion. I do this through visceral manipulation, neuro-fascial manipulation and myofascial release.

Rolfing Structural Integration is a type of bodywork that restructures the connective tissues that surround, support and penetrate all the muscles, bones, nerves and organs of the body. The name Rolfing is an affectionate nod to Dr. Ida P. Rolf by some of her earliest students. Dr. Rolf developed this work more than sixty years ago after she recognized that the structure of the body is inherently a seamless network of web-like connective tissues that can be reorganized to realign and balance the whole body.

When a body is in pain or discomfort, whether physical or emotional, the unconscious response is to tighten and shorten in an effort to 'get away' from the pain. Our work focuses on lengthening and balancing the body in order for the tightened tissue to have some place to go after the release. - Ida Rolf
