Align, integrate, heal & restore

“If you can imagine what it feels like to live in a fluid, light, balanced body, free of pain, stiffness and chronic stress, at ease with itself and the Earth’s gravitational field; then you will understand the goals of Structural Integration.”

-Dr. Ida P. Rolf

 

I have suffered from chronic, debilitating pain from injuries, manual labor, and athletics for as long as I can remember. I was able to have brief improvements after certain modalities (massage, chiropractic, stretching), but I wholeheartedly believed there was nothing that could provide me with sustained improvement or resolution of my symptoms. I believed I would have to live with the constant ache, numbness and vexation from chronic pain for the entirety of my life. And then I met Eric. After one appointment I knew this is what my body yearned for. I couldn’t remember the last time I sat in a chair and didn’t need to constantly adjust or the last time I stood in conversation without bending at the waist to stretch my low back. I couldn’t remember what it felt like to walk without feeling discomfort with every move. That all changed when I started seeing Eric for the 10-series Rolfing sequence. Eric was able to apply his expertise to innumerable tender areas (many places I hadn’t realized needed attention) to allow my body to heal and regain the “flow” it needed. Eric healed areas I didn’t know could be addressed. Eric has a holistic approach and incredible bedside manner. His therapy is a lifesaver and I am forever changed for the better because of it. I recommend his services without reservation.

Eric has mastered his craft. I’ve done deep tissue massage for years. With the Rolf Method, he has gone deeper than all my prior experiences, and without pain. He knows exactly how to coax the fascia and connective tissue into new patterns and how far to go. It is both gentle and respectful. He partners with you in exploring and retraining your stuck areas. I love that he understands how the various systems work together. He makes functional interventions instead of just working with isolated muscles. This is exactly what I’d been looking for but didn’t know anyone who was doing truly holistic work. I highly recommended Sandpoint Rolf Structural Integration.

Our bodies grow, move, and change within the constant field of gravity; when we oppose gravity inefficiently, valuable resources are wasted. Physical injuries, trauma, and the stresses of daily life require us to adapt how we move and hold ourselves upright. These adaptive patterns can become deeply ingrained—even long after they’ve fulfilled their protective and adaptive functions—to the point that basic movements like sitting, breathing, and walking are more effortful than necessary. Such prolonged effort can contribute toward feelings of stiffness, pain, fatigue, and lack of vitality.

Structural Integration can help us learn to “let go” of chronic stress and tension, to stop fighting gravity and allow it to support us instead.

Before and After 10 sessions of Structural Integration

Find relieF from your pain and bring ease to your movement


the 10-Series

Structural Integration aims to unwind chronic tension and address potential dysfunction in each segment and layer of the body. The 10-series is a personalized multi-session therapeutic process for optimal alignment and functioning of the body.

Single session Drop-In

If you are unsure about committing to the entire 10-series process you are still welcome to drop in for an individualized single session treatment utilizing advanced Structural Integration techniques to bring relief and balance to your structure.

injury recovery

Injury and illness distribute strain throughout the body. Structural Integration helps to reconfigure postural holding patterns and invoke the body’s natural self-healing and self-organizing capacities to recover and restore balance.

tune-ups & Advanced work

After completion of the basic 10-series, an advanced series or regular maintenance tune-ups tailored to the needs of your unique structure can continue to enhance vitality, improve mobility, and ease compensatory postural patterns.

Somatic Experiencing

The Somatic Experiencing method is a naturalistic and a neurobiological body oriented approach to healing trauma and other stress disorders. The SE approach releases traumatic shock and restores connection, which is key to transforming PTSD and the wounds of emotional and early developmental attachment trauma. It offers a framework to assess where a person is stuck in the fight, flight or freeze responses and provides clinical tools to resolve these fixated physiological states to restore the authentic self with relaxation, wholeness and aliveness.
