The Healing Power of Rolfing

Realigning Your Body for Pain-Free Movement

Rolfing® Structural Integration is a holistic bodywork technique designed to release deep tension, improve posture, and enhance movement efficiency. Unlike traditional massage, which primarily focuses on muscle relaxation, Rolfing® works with fascia—the body’s connective tissue—to realign and balance the entire structure.

At Selina’s Therapy Center, we use Rolfing® techniques to help clients relieve chronic pain, postural imbalances, and movement restrictions for long-term results.

What is Rolfing® and How Does It Work?

Developed by Dr. Ida Rolf, Rolfing® Structural Integration is a system of hands-on bodywork and movement education that reorganizes the fascia to promote better posture, flexibility, and pain relief.

Over time, injuries, stress, and repetitive movements create tightness in the fascia, leading to misalignment, discomfort, and restricted mobility. Rolfing® uses deep tissue manipulation and movement awareness to restore balance, improve function, and enhance overall well-being.

The Benefits of Rolfing® Structural Integration

✔ Improves Posture & Alignment – Helps realign the body for better movement efficiency.
✔ Relieves Chronic Pain – Addresses back pain, neck stiffness, joint discomfort, and muscular tension.
✔ Increases Mobility & Flexibility – Releases tight fascia, allowing freer movement.
✔ Enhances Athletic Performance – Improves balance, coordination, and muscle function.
✔ Reduces Stress & Tension – Encourages a more relaxed, natural posture.
✔ Supports Injury Recovery – Speeds up healing and helps prevent re-injury.

Who Can Benefit from Rolfing®?

Rolfing® Structural Integration is ideal for:

  • Individuals with chronic pain (back, neck, shoulder, or joint pain).

  • Athletes looking to optimize movement and prevent injuries.

  • People recovering from injuries or surgeries.

  • Anyone experiencing postural imbalances from desk work or repetitive movements.

  • Those seeking deep, lasting structural changes in their body.

Rolfing® vs. Traditional Massage: What’s the Difference?

While both Rolfing® and massage therapy provide pain relief and relaxation, Rolfing® goes beyond muscle relaxation by focusing on structural balance and long-term posture correction.

At Selina’s Therapy Center, we incorporate both Rolfing® and therapeutic massage to provide a customized, effective healing experience for each client.
