Riassunto

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. 4 (December 2017), looks at Rolfing® Structural Integration (SI) and the special considerations of the female population, both in general and during pregnancy and the postpartum period.

Our first theme looks at when and how our work of Rolfing SI might be applied for pregnant and postpartum women, and particular issues that can arise in terms of pain, structure, and embodied experience. We share contributions from Rolfers™ who are also nurse/midwives or doulas, as well as articles from many other Rolfers who have worked with women at these times and/or can share their experience of receiving work during and after their own pregnancies.

Our second theme looks at some considerations, both physical and psychobiological, of the female body and female experience in general.

Our Perspectives section remembers Tim Law – who as a child received sessions from Dr. Rolf and became the model for the Little Boy Logo of the Rolf Institute® – and includes interviews about Tensegrity Touch® and about Rolfing SI and craniosacral work.

Informazioni sull'autore

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®.
