Having been a Licensed Massage Therapist for over 12 years and now a Certified Rolfer, I can say from knowledge that the dissimilarity between the two manual therapies is striking. Yes, they have look likes such as having the aptitude to slacken deeper, reduce stress, promote relaxation and well being and also tighter tissues. Have a look at the article taking us through the theme How rolfing therapy san diego is different from deep tissue massage.
I remember it driving me so crazy hearing this answer over and over as a young child. Then one day it clicked. I asked a question and he gave me the same six one way, half a dozen the other answer and I looked at him and he smiled. I smiled as it finally made sense. As we work very hard to bring Structural Integration out of the mystical mountains and into the forefront, people can often be confused by what this analysis is being called.
When we look at the most common and mainstream types of manual treatment everyone knows of physical therapy and massage therapy. The amount of people that have heard of and have received Rolfing or Structural Integration or the Rolf Method of Structural Integration or whatever term a school puts on their graduates, are just a fraction compared to physical therapy and massage treatment.
Not only does Joe public not really know much about Structural Integration or Rolfing but the medical community is in the same spot as Joe public. So how can we clear up this confusion of terms? It is a trademarked and reserved term for practitioners of the Structural Integration that have graduated from the Rolf Institute.
After a complete series of Structural Integration, some clients return, after a waiting period of three to six months, for tune-up sessions that help to maintain the benefits of the body being better balanced and alleviating discomfort from emerging deeper issues. What distinguishes the Structural Integration from Deep Tissue massage is not necessarily the medium in which we work, but the goal of our work - which is to reshape and reorganize the human structure.
Using clearly defined principles in a systematic and consistent manner, a Rolfer manipulates tissue in order to lessen the effects of the constant pull of gravity. In Deep Tissue massages, tight tissue and toxins are released locally, on a table, often with heavy, direct, stagnant pressure. The benefits are increased blood and oxygen flow, resulting in tissue repair and pain management.
They go to find another Rolfer to receive continued care but none can be found because there may not be any Rolfers in that particular city. It is possible that their Rolfer never referred to the work as Structural Integration, the actual name for the process, and the person does not know what to do. In this new city there may be Structural Integrators though, but the person does not know that this Structural Integrator has been taught and practices the same thing as their Rolfer.
Rolfing is not just a therapy involving direct manipulation of soft tissue. Integrating the newly changed structures into a functional, moving holistic body is a unique, indirect and educational aspect of the work. Deep Tissue Massage often does not include movement education, such as working with the client in motion, let alone off the table. Benefits of integrating postural and anatomical cues with the client off the table, in gravity, can help the client bring the experience of their Rolfing sessions into their daily lives.
