Typically Rolfing is offered in a 10-Session format, however, single sessions can be beneficial as well for specific trouble areas. With the amount of change, growth, and stress that Athletes place on their bodies Rolfing™ sessions can be beneficial on a semi-regular or pre/post race basis.

In regards to Athletes, hands on Rolfing™ sessions combined with functional movement sessions can help improve:
