Originally, Ida Rolf invented a type of bodywork called Structural Integration. Recently, the name Structural Integration has been replaced with Rolfing. Both Structural Integration and Rolfing incorporate the same premise. These modalities look at the body through basic laws of physics. Ida Rolf created this deep muscle and soft tissue technique to address postural distortions, and chronic stress. Integrative practitioners restore muscle balance and enhance correct posture.
