Having been a Licensed Massage Therapist for over 12 years and now a Certified Rolfer, I can say from knowledge that the dissimilarity between the two manual therapies is striking. Yes, they have look likes such as having the aptitude to slacken deeper, reduce stress, promote relaxation and well being and also tighter tissues. Have a look at the article taking us through the theme How rolfing therapy san diego is different from deep tissue massage.
When a year ago, I felt that my body was all knotted up in a way I couldn't fix with yoga, I first tried acupuncture. When that didn't work, some of my friends put me in touch with a new entry for body and spine alignment in the world of stress treatment. It is an incredibly intense kind of deep tissue massage and body realignment treatment called Rolfing that is all set to become the next wonder kid of new-age therapies formerly limited to treatments like Reiki and acupuncture.
A standard Deep Tissue massage session is usually a one hour, full body treatment. The results are immediate, and there is not a required specific number of sessions. The amount of sessions recommended really depends on the wants/needs of the client. The strategy of therapeutic process is determined by the client's reports of symptoms of pain or stress.
Not only does Joe public not really know much about Structural Integration or Rolfing but the medical community is in the same spot as Joe public. So how can we clear up this confusion of terms? It is a trademarked and reserved term for practitioners of the Structural Integration that have graduated from the Rolf Institute.
Rolfing treatment can get very aggressive and very painful. If this seems not very different from what the chiropractors do, Rolfing involves the aggressive manipulation of the connective tissue (otherwise known in the lingo as the fascia) as opposed to the bones and the muscle that the chiropractors deal in. It has to be aggressive because the connective tissue can be really tough to manipulate.
The common lingo could go something like, I was Rolfed today, or I am going to see my Rolfer, or do you know anything about that Rolf stuff? The politics surrounding this confusion can create a difficult and cumbersome task for people who are looking for, and learning about, Structural Integration. Let's say a person has worked with a Rolfer and has moved to a new city.
They go to find another Rolfer to receive continued care but none can be found because there may not be any Rolfers in that particular city. It is possible that their Rolfer never referred to the work as Structural Integration, the actual name for the process, and the person does not know what to do. In this new city there may be Structural Integrators though, but the person does not know that this Structural Integrator has been taught and practices the same thing as their Rolfer.
We are now in a period of time where we have many great schools that are teaching some derivative of the Rolf Method of Structural Integration. Most schools refer to their graduates as Structural Integrators, but a few may have their own label or term. A good example of a language issue can be seen when we look at automobiles or cars. I remember my best friend's family and how they referred to their cars.
