Blog Talk Radio interviewed me on how Rolfing can help RSD (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy) and Chronic Pain. RSD can be a very painful and debilitating condition, and there are many holistic options for chronic pain. As I mentioned on the show, Rolfing can be effective in helping people with RSD, and other chronic pain conditions, through releasing the stress and tension of the body.
The chronic tension of the body builds throughout life; you get stressed, then tense. If the tension isn’t released, it tightens up your fascia, causing pain and sometimes injuries. With chronic pain or RSD, the tension might not cause your condition, but it inevitably makes it worse.

Back pain is the most common reason someone comes to see me. Often these clients have tried many other therapies before calling me, some are desperate.
Recently I did an interview for the web site – Living with Back Pain. I discuss how Rolfing can help acute and chronic back pain. Check the interview out here.

The effects of Rolfing and structural integration are discussed in an article first written in the Chicago Tribune, then published in the Spokesman Review. The article does a good job describing Rolfing and Ida Rolf, Ph.D., its founder.
The article makes a good point –
There’s a growing community of practicing, certified Rolfers. The Rolf Institute of Structural Integration in Boulder, Colo., is the only educational facility in the country that offers Rolfing certification.
As Rolfing grows, more people are claiming to be Rolfers or “Rolfed trained.” Unfortunately, the misrepresenting what they do often leave their clients short.
It is good to see more press on Rolfing. As a profession we have been lacks in getting the word out.
