Rolfing is a series of sessions, each session having specific goals that are adapted to clients needs as they change within their postural evolution.

Treatment incorporates a postural gate analysis, deep fascial release techniques with client participation (movements) to re-educate the connection between your nervous system and your potential movement.

The result is an aptitude and postural evolution towards an energy efficient body function for everyday life and in your activity.

Today, Rolfing is one of the best known and widespread postural and structural methods, as well as a pioneer in fascia research globally.

In this session we address the normal discomforts experienced during and after pregnancy such as; backaches, pelvic adaptations, stiffness, cramps, headaches and swelling.

Reducing stress on weight-bearing joints, encouraging circulation, relax nervous tension, aiding in better sleep and can help relieve depression or anxiety caused by hormonal changes.

I take extra care to ensure mother is comfortable, adapting her position so she can either be in side lying or sitting with pillows and props.

Post birth, I can facilitate pelvic floor rehabilitation and work on scar tissues that have occurred during birth.

Myofascial restrictions cause pain, limited motion and poor shock absorption. This also creates dehydration of tissues and joint stiffness. Lubricated fascia sets up the environment for cellular recovery and adaptability in movement leading to pain free function throughout the body.

A body with fascial restrictions will not efficiently absorb trauma as it travels throughout the whole system. This begins to explain injury; pressure builds at the fascial restrictions during and after the trauma, inhibiting functional movement for recovery. Therefore a body that is malleable and adaptive will be affect less by both physical and emotional stress.
