Inhaltsangabe

Structural Integration: The Journal of the Rolf Institute® is the professional journal representing the field of Rolfing® Structural Integration. It has been in continuous publication for some forty years, initially as The Bulletin of Structural Integration and later as Rolf Lines.

This issue of Structural Integration: The Journal of the Rolf Institute®, Volume 45 No. 1 (March 2017), looks at cross-pollination between Rolfing® Structural Integration (SI) and other endeavors.

Many practitioners come to Rolfing SI after a career in another field, some continue to have dual careers, and some have serious vocations or engage in new professional trainings while maintaining their Rolfing practices. Thus, we are Rolfers™ but we have been or still are artists, physicians, researchers, actors, lawyers, spiritual teachers, nurses, authors, psychotherapists, dancers, etc. These other interests and bodies of knowledge uniquely cross-pollinate with and inform how individual Rolfers engage the field of Rolfing SI, and the Rolfing worldview in turn affects their other interests. This makes for a dynamic field of practice, where each individual brings a perspective or facet that can add understanding of our work as a whole. The cross-pollination theme in this issue features articles by and interviews with a broad sampling of Rolfers from diverse fields. We also feature articles on closure and on the effect of radiation treatment on fascia – and how this tissue that is ‘burned from within’ requires a unique approach.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

The Rolf Institute® of Structural Integration was established in 1971 by Dr. Ida P. Rolf to carry on the work she originated, the field of structural integration. Dr. Rolf's genius was to consider these two factors in combination - how gravity affects a body's structure and alignment, and the holistic role of fascia (the body's connective tissues) in maintaining the shape and flexibility of the human form. With these concepts, she developed a process for optimizing body posture and structure by aligning and re-organizing the fascia.

The vision of The Rolf Institute is to bring the benefits of Rolfing® Structural Integration to the world. This is accomplished through internationally-recognized certification programs in Rolfing Structural Integration and Rolf Movement® Integration, as well as continuing education programs for practitioners. The Rolf Institute of Structural Integration is the only school that teaches Rolfing Structural Integration and graduates Certified Rolfers™ worldwide. The Rolf Institute also underwrites and promotes research and public education about the benefits of Rolfing SI, including the publication of its scholarly periodical, Structural Integration: The Journal of The Rolf Institute®.
