Frequently Asked Questions

• Increased energy levels

How much does Rolfing® cost?
Rolfing® sessions are $140, due at the time of treatment.
(NOTE: I do not accept payment in advance for The 10-Series.)
Do I have to commit to The 10-Series?
Of course not. Clients generally know after the first session whether Rolfing® will bring about the results they are looking for. The 10-Series Recipe brings about lasting changes. But sometimes, for various reasons, The 10-Series may not be the best plan. We have the option of crafting a shorter series to meet your immediate needs and leave your body in a balanced state.
Is Rolfing® painful??
Nope. Rolfing® has the reputation of being very painful, and maybe this was true in the beginning. But, over the years, they’ve found that we can get the change we are looking for without creating pain. If the body can change, it will respond to gentle guidance. Part of what we’re doing is working with the nervous system. For change to happen, the system must feel safe. So, we never force change onto the body. (The work may be uncomfortable, at times, but it should not be painful. Communication is key).
“Go around the problem; get the system sufficiently resilient so that it is able to change, and it will change. It doesn’t have to be forced. It’s that forcing that you have to avoid at all costs.” — Dr. Ida P. Rolf
How often should I come for Rolfing®?
It is suggested that we wait 1-3 weeks between sessions to allow adequate time for the body to integrate. Between sessions, your body will be working hard to process the Rolfing® changes. Sometimes, those of us that are more sensitive may need extra time… and that’s ok, too. We always listen to the body!
What do I wear for Rolfing® sessions??
Women: A comfortable bra and underwear or gym shorts
Men: Gym shorts or boxer shorts
Is there anything I should do before a Rolfing® session?
Hydrate!
