Basic 10 series Review
The First Three Sessions - Creating Space, Support and Establishing Layers.
In the first 3 sessions the Rolfer will be working on opening the breath by creating space and resilience in the structure. As client begins to expand his/her breathing, the tissues become more oxygenated and thus become healthier and easier to change.
As the entire weight and balance of the body is resting on our feet, many symptoms in the back and neck is caused by misalignment and distortion in the feet and ankle.
The Rolfer will work on differentiating layers in the torso beginning to establish a midline in the side plane of the body. This would allow the shoulder girdle and the pelvic girdle to move freely and separately and yet related to each other.

"Some individuals may perceive their losing fight with gravity as a sharp pain in their back, others as the unflattering contour of their body, others as constant fatigue, yet others as an unrelentingly threatening environment. Those over forty may call it old age. And yet all these signals may be pointing to a single problem so prominent in their own structure, as well as others, that it has been ignored: they are off balance, they are at war with gravity."

Integration - Sessions 8-10
The integration hours is about relationships: between structure and function, core and sleeve, extrinsic/intrinsic, inside/outside, horizontal/vertical, up/down, being and doing. As a result, the body structure would be one complete interrelating whole being.
