How does Rolfing work?
Rolfling strives to align and balance the body's components until the entire system is a smoothly functioning unit. For example, the legs are aligned to the hips, shoulders to ribcage, the body is positioned over the feet and then all of these joints and related tissue are integrated to one another. A few of the many benefits people experience are reduced pain, an enhanced sense of body awareness, and improved posture.
A Rolfing Ten Series is a holistic system of soft tissue manipulation and movement education which releases chronic stress and tension patterns and restores the body to its healthiest and most efficient alignment.
The Ten Series can be divided into three distinct units.
Sessions 1 - 3: Called the "sleeve" sessions; numbers one through three strive to loosen and balance surface layers of connective tissue. The first session is devoted to enchancing the quality of breath with work on the arms, ribcage, and diaphragm. Opening is also started along the upper legs, hamstrings, neck and spine. The second session helps give the body a stable foundation by balancing the foot and muscles of the lower leg. Number three typically involves a "side view" for an understanding of how the head, shoulder girdle, and hips are positionally related to one another when standing under the influence of gravity. The body is then addressed within the context of this new vision.
Session 4 - 7: Four through seven are referred to as "core" sessions and examine terrain found between the bottom of the pelvis and the top of the head. The idea of core also includes the deep tissue of the legs for its role in support. Session four begins this journey; its territory extends from the inside arch of the foot and up the leg to the bottom of the pelvis. The fifth session is concerned with balancing surface and deep abdominal muscles to the curve of the back. Number six seeks to enlist more support and movement from the legs, pelvis, and lower back. The seventh session's sole attention is to the neck and head.
Session 8 - 10: "Integration" is emphasized throughout the remaining three sessions; eight, nine and ten provide an opportunity for the practitioner to blend previously established advancements, and ones yet to be made, into the body in a way that encourages smooth movement and natural coordination. During sessions eight and nine, the practitioner is free to decide how best to achieve this integration, as the protocol is unique for each individual. The tenth and final session is also one of integration, but more importantly, serves to inspire a sense of order and balance. Once completed, the wisdom of the Rolfing Ten Series will drive and support the body with health for years to come.

Soft Tissue Release is a specific Neuromuscular Therapy for correcting muscular imbalances that can lead to overuse injuries, i.e. tendonitis or nerve impingement. Originally developed to treat some of the world's fastest Olympic sprinters, STR is a method of applying pressure to a muscle at the same time the muscle is being stretched; accelerating the healing of muscular injuries by breaking up scar tissue, differentiating muscle groups and flooding areas with much needed blood and oxygen with the result of quickly eliminating chronic pain. |

Restoration Anti-Aging Facial
This facial addresses the appearance and changes of aging skin by targeting two critical areas: hormonal levels and changes associated with cumulative sun exposure. As females age and hormonal levels drop, the sebaceous glands begin to atrophy, contributing to drier skin. In addition, the decline of estrogen results in reduced moisture content, exacerbating the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. This facial is designed to softly illuminate the skin and help boost moisture retention, defending against signs of aging. Skin's vitality is instantly restored and visibly smoother, younger and more healthy. For pre-menopausal and menopausal skin.
Recommended once a month.

Recommended twice a month (especially one who travels regularly by air).
Glycolic Peels
Medical studies have revealed that glycolic acid may stimulate collagen and act as a powerful antioxidant. This non-invasive lifting of the cells enables glycolic acid to act as a phenomenal resurfacing agent that can improve the appearance of the skin, minimize surface lines and has been proven to reduce the depths of acne scarring. Peels are very popular because they work actively to reduce problems associated with acne prone skin, sun damage, and skin pigment irregularities. For all skin types.
Recommended twice a month. Package of four peels available for $240.
