Discovering The Benefits Of Rolfing California

By Lila Bryant


As with acupuncture, chiropractics, massage and Reiki, a great deal of training is involved when desiring to become a rolfing practitioner. This is especially true when looking to become licensed in rolfing California. The Rolf Institute of Structural Integration is one of the best bets for those wishing to learn this amazing healing art.

Although, while chiropractics focus on skeletal aspects of the body, rolfing focuses on the fascia. The practice is based on a pattern of 10 treatments called a recipe. Many who work with these practitioners to alleviate pain, stress and emotional blockage indicate the benefits are far more reaching as well.

Both programs are self-study based and offer a three phase approach to learning. The training can generally be completed in twelve to eighteen months. In each program, lessons will focus on structural integration including specific training in kinesiology, physiology and anatomy. Unlike traditional courses in these areas, these lessons focus on the ability to differentiate different body tissue through touch, the principles of tissue integration, recognizing the difference between structural and functional patterns and how to conduct a complete ten series session known as a recipe.

The tissue is then transformed into new patterns. The process not only generates integrated healing patterns within the body but also helps to release emotional distress. Most individuals find this to be quite beneficial. Those with little to no knowledge of the practice can sometimes find the emotional release a session a shock to the system.

Like with recipes for food and drink, there are instances where no matter how much a practitioner tries, the recipe is just not successful. It is for this reason that some believe there is no proof Rolfing has seen success in treating or controlling various health conditions. For those who have experienced the benefits, there is no denying that the practice has helped alleviate, and in some cases, cure symptoms.

The three phase program for those without experience includes work with anatomy, physiology and kinesiology. Structural integration, application theory and ethics are also an important part of the training. While tuition is expensive, individuals obtaining certification can often see a return on the investment within a few years time as a certified practitioner.

Those who work with practitioners for a full recipe often have great things to say about this healing art. As with all practices, individuals always need check with a primary care provider or holistic practitioner to determine which practices may work best for current needs. Most holistic practitioners and traditional medical staff support the practice as an add-on, if not primary medical care for a number of conditions.

Individuals who have early childhood or other emotional trauma which has been dormant due to therapy or other work, need consider this aspect. While it can be extremely difficult, the practice can help release any negative energy still related to such trauma but it might take a great deal of patience and work to overcome the emotional release of such energy. A number of individuals whom have completed the recipe say the greatest benefit is that the process healed body, mind and Spirit while also promoting a freer and less stressful life in the future.
