Synopsis
This is Ida P. Rolf's long-awaited book, written over a period of years in time stolen from her full schedule of teaching and lecturing. Here, with the aid of over 600 illustrations, Dr. Rolf explains the theory and practice of the body therapy known as rolfing.
The purpose of rolfing is to put the body into a natural balance, or alignment, with the energy field in which it moves...the field of gravity. This rebalancing is accomplished through ten hour-long sessions of systematic maniulation that loosen and reorganize the myofascia, the connective tissue that surrounds the muscles. After rolfing, not only do you stand taller, look better, and move with greater ease, but you have more vitality and a greater of well-being.
The book is intended for two types of readers: the interested but untrained layperson and the professional wanting technical information. In spite of its many illustrations, it makes no pretense of being an anatomy book. Rather its goal is to establish a new point of view, a new way of looking at the human body.
