Rolfing: The Integration of Human Structures

This is not a "how to do" Rolfing® Structural Integration, book. However, it is a window into the considerations of good human structure that motivated her in the founding of structural integration. The illustrations and their textual accompaniments make a good read in themselves. Many of these thoughts, so wild and crazy in their day, have become common knowledge, here explicated more fully.

Smelled of mold, but it’s old so that can be expected!

The book goes into the theory concerning rolfing. It is proof that Dr. Rolf was a very wise person. She stepped outside the traditional way of looking at the body. She was a real pioneer in this field.

This book has a lot of great pictures of people rolfing. What is that? My patience gets short with all these pictures. I am lucky I have a good imagination.

Very few physical therapists are aware of the importance of the psoas muscle. God rest your soul, Ida, for having helped me to keep walking.

Treasure book/the first edition.

Rolfing is making a come-back. Ida Rolf was way ahead of her time!

Great book for learning philosophy.

I purchased this book to give myself a better idea of how this works. I have since seen an integrated therapist and can attest that he finds places that others have not found to treat. He also gave me exercises to practice at home. I passed the book on to my massage therapist who is also interested in alternative treatments.
