Structural integration, was developed by an American Biological Chemist, Dr Ida Rolf, over a period of 40 years. She believed that many illnesses resulted from poor posture. In rectifying their rounded shoulders or hunched backs, patients use up vital energy and thus leave themselves wide open to disease. The 'structural integration' involves a massage technique using deep manipulation of the fascia (connective tissue) to restore the body's natural alignment, which may have become rigid through injury, emotional trauma, and inefficient movement habits. Dr Rolf was convinced that total health can be achieved only when the energy field of the body is supported correctly by the gravity of the Earth. Structural integration is a combination of Chiropractic / Osteopathy and Bioenergetics.
