About this title

Synopsis

Structure, Function, Integration: Journal of the Dr. Ida 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 Structure, Function, Integration: Journal of the Dr. Ida Rolf Institute, Volume 46, No. 3 (December 2018) has a theme of Scoliosis. In the collection of articles on this theme, Rolfing practitioners, who are also dancers, actors, or singers, address the role Rolfing Structural Integration can play in enhancing performance in these disciplines through direct fascial manipulation, through movement integration, and through the therapeutic relationship. The issue also includes a number of other varied topics, among them articles on the tongue, lumbar / pelvic pain, structural aging, and the ongoing case-study research into Rolfing Structural Integration being carried out by Brazilian Rolfers. Although Rolfing Structural Integration (SI) is primarily a form of manual therapy to reorganize body structure through the fascia, it has long been observed that Rolfing sessions can have an equally strong transformative impact on clients’ minds and ways of being. In this issue of Structure, Function, Integration: Journal of the Dr. Ida Rolf Institute, Volume 46 No. 3 (December 2018), we focus on the mind-body relationship. In thirteen articles, our authors discuss 'Mind' through the lenses of trauma, meaning structures, metaphor, language, attachment theory and the therapeutic relationship, and meditation and spirituality. Additional articles in the Perspectives section discuss biotensegrity, osteopathy, hip dysfunction, and Rolfing history.
