About Structural Integration

Structural Integration,

is a system of soft tissue manipulation which works on the connective tissue and is designed to restore the body to its healthiest and most efficient alignment. By creating length and manipulating the connective tissue (such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia – the structure that surrounds muscles), Structural Integration works to establish more alignment in the body and a more sustainable and efficient working unit. This bodywork system was founded by Dr. Ida Rolf, who explained: “This is the gospel of Rolf: When the body gets working appropriately, the force of gravity can flow through. Then, spontaneously, the body heals itself.”
