Structural Integration (Rolfing) - Bodywork in Madison
Benefits of Structural Integration
Structural Integration is an individual process with a wide range of effects and benefits possible including:
- freedom, ease and fluidity of movement
- alleviation of pain and discomfort
- good posture which is effortless
- greater flexibility
- increased breathing capacity
- greater body awareness
- increased energy and stamina
- feeling of lightness
- better balance
- appear taller and slimmer (some actually gain anywhere from 1/4 inch to 1 inch in height)
While SI obviously has a great affect on the body, it aims to affect the whole person emotionally, physically and energetically. It is impossible to touch the physical body without touching the emotional body, therefore the following are also possible:
- diminished emotional stress and anxiety
- improved sleep patterns
- greater self confidence
- better ability to express emotions
- release of emotionally charged material stored in the body's tissues
- a more intimate relationship with your physical body
- an overall sense of well-being
