Rolfing is a lesser known healing art than acupuncture, chiropractics, massage, Reiki and others. Rolfing California practitioners and others are known for using deeper and more aggressive pressure. The process which many term Structural Integration works to release tension and reshape the fascia which is extremely thin tissue made up of threads which run in opposite overlaid patterns beneath the skin.
The institute, located in Boulder, CO offers two different programs. One for those who already hold credentials and certificates in other healing arts and one for those without experience. Each program has different requirements based on what individuals may have learned in previous training sessions.
Massage provides a great deal of healing and relaxation; Rolfing on the other hand requires more intense pressure because it works to reshape and restructure this thin tissue. When receiving a treatment, practitioners often put the full force of body pressure so as to massage and manipulate each thin thread of skin tissue.
Individuals will learn how to conduct movement sessions which are based on rolfing principles. Lessons in how to practice tissue building and restructuring techniques are one of the most important aspects of the learning process and will be offered throughout different study periods. Whether an individual has previous training or otherwise, it is important that all students complete the professional ethics training associated with the practice.
Like with recipes for food and drink, there are instances where no matter how much a practitioner tries, the recipe is just not successful. It is for this reason that some believe there is no proof Rolfing has seen success in treating or controlling various health conditions. For those who have experienced the benefits, there is no denying that the practice has helped alleviate, and in some cases, cure symptoms.
The three phase program for those without experience includes work with anatomy, physiology and kinesiology. Structural integration, application theory and ethics are also an important part of the training. While tuition is expensive, individuals obtaining certification can often see a return on the investment within a few years time as a certified practitioner.
The study and timeline to obtain a certificate for those with experience is slightly different and takes less time. The 3 phase program for experienced individuals focuses on structural integration, different levels of touch, tissue manipulation and restructuring, professional ethics, application theory and movement. The cost is about the same for both the basic and advanced programs.
Individuals who have early childhood or other emotional trauma which has been dormant due to therapy or other work, need consider this aspect. While it can be extremely difficult, the practice can help release any negative energy still related to such trauma but it might take a great deal of patience and work to overcome the emotional release of such energy. A number of individuals whom have completed the recipe say the greatest benefit is that the process healed body, mind and Spirit while also promoting a freer and less stressful life in the future.
