SERVICES
I help people with movement - moving in gravity, sensing and feeling, and relating to others..
Some practitioners who work with the body treat it as separate from other aspects of the self and consider assistance with emotions, beliefs or relating to be the realm of a counsellor or therapist.
I believe all aspects of a person are present all the time. I may be treating your arm pain but I am also treating your arm as gesture – to embrace, to reach, to say no for example. In my Rolfing® sessions we work with your movement as this living, breathing, loving physical expression of your self.
"... no situation exists in a human which a psychologist would diagnose as a feeling of insecurity or inadequacy unless it is accompanied by a physical situation which bears witness to the fact that the gravitational support is inadequate."
Ida P. Rolf, Ph.D.
Rolfing® SI combines direct pressure (myo-fascial release) with education in movement and posture. It is delivered in a specific series or ‘recipe’ of 10 sessions. My work holds to the Rolfing principles but the delivery is a little different. The layout of the sessions is more fluid and we don’t follow a specific series.
There is gentle hands-on treatment combined with subtle movement play to help you rebuild your body map. You might find new movements, gestures or insights. Together we will discover ways to take these new possibilities into life.
You can remain fully clothed throughout my session (in comfortable clothes). I find this is easier for people and makes movement more natural (than when wearing underwear). And lastly, Rolfing has a reputation for being quite painful, but my sessions are never painful and are always gentle.
