What is Rolfing Natural Healing System?
Those who sign up for Rolfing are generally looking for a way to manage and lower pain and tension, which tends to be related to some sort of trauma. It is commonly used with athletes in order to speed up healing and encourage motion range, as well as prevent injuries from reoccurring. Performers are also encouraged to try Rolfing in order to improve their performance and to prevent injuries related to constant stress. It is also encouraged by various therapists and counselors to help control levels of energy and emotions.
Unlike massage, Rolfing aims to help the body in the long-term aspect by manipulating soft tissue and increasing range of motion. It is not just a method for relief or relaxation but aims to improve the body through structure and posture. It works on freeing the whole body of tension instead of a focused area. Rolfing is meant to increase motion and is beneficial to joints and muscles. It speeds up the healing process by getting rid of tension and pain and increasing circulation.
What is involved in a Rolfing healing session?
Therapists also educate their clients on how to practice beneficial movement and breathing techniques on a day-to-day basis. Sessions tend to take place once a week. Self-treatment at home can be implemented once the 10 sessions are complete, unless it is a serious case.
The treatment can be quite uncomfortable at times and is not as relaxing (as it is being performed) as a traditional massage. Many patients leave the session and feel sore or in mild pain. It is important to drink plenty of water both before and after the treatment.
Those with serious conditions such as cancer, lupus, or physiological disorders should consult their doctor before considering Rolfing natural healing system.
