My first session was positive. I always thought that my ribcage was deformed because the left side was concave and the right side was convex. I thought I was born like that. I pointed it out to the rolfer and she tweaked the muscles and now they are symmetrical after just one session! That was about 4 months ago and I would like to complete the rest of them because I have had numerous injuries to the lower extremeties... knee ankles etc...

There is also a slight pelvic tilt that could be the result of a past injury or bad habit or both. Yoga does seem to help too.

Hi

I have not been rolfed but would like to do the ten sessions.

I have been told by someone reputable that bodywork aside from releasing physical problems can release emotional blockages.

This person believes that body work is a more effective form of emotional clearing than psychotherapy. There is evidence accumulating that emotional experiences are stored at a physical level as cellular memory. Rolfing is the deepest massage you can have and I have also heard from people that have been rolfed that the memories that come up during a session are very powerful and then just resolved.

Love to know if anyone else has had experiences like this.

Love and light

Cathy

Art,

It just occured that maybe it's not so good to keep the fact that Kevin injured you a secret from him. I don't know what would be best of course, but the reason I say so is that when I go to get Rolfed I hope that the practitioner is as careful as possible.

Check your HMP/PPO or whatever your insurance is because I recently heard that some insurance policies are covering "massage" and most Rolfer's are also massage therapists.
