The Forum

I'm currently looking to grow my community.   In order for more people to discover the benefits of Rolfing and how it helps people, I am looking for volunteers to share their experience of Rolfing and wellness with my online community. This would include a brief testimonial and sharing visual results online (all names will be kept confidential and faces need not be shared; simply want to detail postural changes).  If you are interested in participating in helping me share my practice with the world, please email me at cokobodybalance@gmail.com.

Most clients receive work in their undergarment. Briefs are best for men: traditional panties and bra work well for women. If you are not comfortable with this stage of undress, two piece bathing suit or a pair of short,cotton gym shorts is a good choice. We can work with a variety of clothing, just keep the following in mind: ・You must be comfortable. Unlike massage, Rolfing requires you to get up from the table and walk around periodically. ・Clothing should not pinch or bind. If you can lie on the table and pull one knee to your chest without resistance, you are in good shape. ・Clothing should allow us to view and work your upper legs, mid-back and neck. [What Not to wear] ・ Fragrance. Many clients are highly-sensitive to smells. Even pleaasant ones. Sorry to ask, but please refrain from wearing perfume or cologne when you come for a session. ・Moisturizer,lotion or oils. Lotion on your skin makes it difficult to manipulate tissue layers effectively. The day of your session, it is helpful if you refrain from applying any type of moisturizer (or oil, especially) that does not completely absorb into your skin.

Allow an hour and half for your first session and 75~90 min for following appointments. Rolfers determine session length depends on session goals, the intensity of the day’s work, health history, client energy level and ability to integrate work. They are just a few of the factors that Rolfer consider.
