talk to a certified Rolfer near you ….Rolfing helps to release chronic tension in the muscles and fascia, particularly in the neck, shoulders, and upper back. Poor posture, such as forward head posture or rounded shoulders, can strain the muscles and fascia, leading to headaches. This tension is often a significant contributor to tension headaches.
Rolfing aims to correct these postural imbalances, reducing strain and alleviating headaches. By realigning the body's structure, Rolfing helps to ensure that the head is properly balanced over the spine. This reduces unnecessary stress on the neck and upper back muscles, which can help prevent headaches.
Rolfing takes a whole-body approach to health. By addressing the interconnectedness of the body's structures, Rolfing can provide long-term relief and prevent the recurrence of headaches by promoting overall structural balance and well-being.
Headaches can stem from various causes, including muscle tension, poor posture, and structural imbalances in the body. Rolfing, also known as Rolfing Structural Integration, is a form of bodywork that focuses on manipulating and realigning the body's connective tissues (fascia).This can lead to significant reductions in headache frequency and intensity, and improve overall quality of life.
After years of clients and colleagues asking for a
user-friendly
explanation of Rolfing SI I decided to write The Power of
Rolfing.
Clients who experience the benefits of Rolfing want to share
it with
others—they want a book that explains what they experienced.

Since I started the Rolf Method of Structural Integration, I have not had any back spasms. In addition, my posture has improved and the tension in my shoulders and back is gone. I have not had any spasms in over eight months."

Reading articles and especially research takes effort… but sometimes you have to do the deep dive. This list of articles and research papers explore headaches and Rolfing in more depth and describe clinical studies and the other research ongoing in the field of Fascia research and trauma.
Important Note: It's important to note that Rolfing, like any alternative medicine, may not work for everyone, and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. It is recommended that individuals consult with their healthcare provider should they have any health issues before beginning any new treatment approach, including Rolfing, to ensure it is appropriate for their condition.
