Good day and thank you for visiting my site.
I discovered Rolfing and Structural Integration many years ago when I started getting into manual bodywork. The history of Rolfing was a bit unknown to me, but I felt a calling to study this amazing process. I attended an 8-week course with Emmett Hutchins. The experience with Mr. Hutchins opened my eyes to the world of Rolfing.
I really had no idea what I was in for. I come from a massage background which I have been doing full time since 1998. I believe in the benefits of massage. I see it. I feel it. Rolfing gives me a much greater tool to work with an individual. I am not here to knock massage; I will always love what it can offer. However, the results that I have personally experienced and the shift in my client’s bodies is undeniable. Where as massage is more of a time out for the client, Rolfing subtlely engages the client, bringing increased awareness to basic movements, introducing efficiency to the system.
I have struggled to write this opening page only to realize that what I need to say about the Rolfing process has already been written. This is where I will encourage you to visit Ed Maupin’s site. He has brought extensive knowledge to our community about our work. I have included a link to his “Brochure.” The Guild for Structural Integration also has a wonderful description of this style of work. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. If you are interested in an appointment, please go to my contact list and call the number there. You can also email me.

Thanks,
Jake
