Clients and practitioners have reported improvements in many conditions after a series of sessions. The primary aim of Rolfing is the improvement of structure, posture and movement. Therefore, any overall lack of well being that relates to these issues can be responsive to Rolfing. The improvement of structure through structural Integration is a process designed to benefit the whole person. It is not a therapy for medical conditions.
Many mind-body factors affect how Rolfing is received and perceived by each person. Therefore, the long term effects are entirely individual. How well a client is able to engage with their own body and how great their individual capacity for change will influence the initial outcome and long term benefits. The key objective of Rolfing is always improved structure and optimised function. Optimising function is personal. A small improvement for one client may represent a significant personal achievement for another.
