What Is Rolfing®?

Rolfing®, also known as Structural Integration, is a comprehensive hands-on method for improving body structure, posture and mobility. Its aim is to support each individual in organising their body in a more balanced way and to promote a more natural posture.

At the heart of the Rolfing® treatment are the fasciae – the network of connective tissue that extends throughout the body. Through precise and individually tailored work on the fascial tissue, the body is supported in reorganising itself and in finding better alignment in relation to gravity. This can help change patterns of tension, promote freedom of movement and refine awareness of one’s own body.

Rolfing® takes a holistic view of the human being and addresses not only the physical body but also the psychosomatic dimension. Bodywork can help deepen body awareness, increase self-awareness, and support greater alignment, balance and well-being in everyday life.
