Who is Ida P. Rolf, Ph.D? | |

What is the Rolf® Institute? |
|
Currently
there are about 1,000 Rolfing practitioners in twenty six countries
throughout the world who treat an estimated 150,000 individuals per
year. It is estimated, at this time, that about one million people have
experienced the Rolfing process of Structural Integration. Dr. Rolf
gave this body of work the name Structural Integration, which it still holds,
and is a very good short description of what it is. Rolfing can be seen
as the brand name, such as Kleenex® tissues or Xerox® copiers. Some
Rolfing practitioners and teachers have taken Dr. Rolf's principles and
developed their specific applications of Structural Integration. Joseph
Heller is the founder of Hellerwork; Judith Aston developed Aston Patterning;
Robert Hall and Richard Heckler founded the Lomi School of BodyWork; and Dick
Stenstadvold, Emmett Hutchins and Peter Melchior have established the Guild
for Structural Integration. |
