The Rolfing® Basic 10 Series

Rolfing® is done through a form of 10 sessions called 'The Recipe' its the basic foundation and essence of the work. The 10-series is a process of layering the body like peeling an onion, it's the physical unwrapping and peeling of blockages, restrictions and deep ingrained habitual patterns that limited the full expression of our being and impeded gravity from supporting us 3 dimensionally. Each session is different but all sessions are interconnected, each one building on the last. Each session lasts about 60-90 minutes. In the session, the client is a participant fully present working with the practitioner to make small movements, find the connection and stay in the body.

The client wear suitable attire for the session, the session begins by structural and functional evaluation then the work is done on the table,

sitting on a bench and in space.
