The first Advanced Rolfing session is a beautiful way to introduce the work to the body. It cultivates a deeper awareness of what is really happening, it is a place of adaptability & inquiry. An awareness of more support is palpable going into the second session. The coded description of the work is — Second Hour: Support/Palintonicity (2–3–4) Bilateral Support. The feet and lower legs are critical; you must have support for the parts above. Even more critical is the ankle and the way those joints fit into each other. Assess lower legs & the arches of the feet. The main goals are to create support for the pelvis with structures above it and lengthening the back. To create support we look at the spring of the arches in the foot and how the weight is transmitted through the foot. Rotations in Talus & Calcaneous balance or inhibit the structure from aligning based on rotation/counter rotations and horizontal hinges at knees, ankles, and toes. Counter rotations between agreeable segments of the carpal or metacarpal bones deepens an imbalance in the body above. Work towards resolving asymmetries in low leg & knee. After working plantar fascia, and retinaculum, test how the fibula responds in dorsiflexion via interosseus membrane, working to resolve rotations & counter rotations between segments of the feet and low legs. Free up restricted drifts in the tissue so that the legs & feet can differentiate & integrate. Dr. Rolf called this the "Body geometry", or the natural organizing effect based upon the structures balance & alignment in the vertical gravitational field. The back needs lengthening and releasing of the erectors of the back, moving up & in at the wide portions & down & away where the tissue is narrow. Work with flat spots & side bends With their associated rotations to integrate the support and palintonicity above the supported pelvis. It's great for the client to connect through the feet while seated, exploring the relationship of the" eye of the foot". An exploration with down/up is always a profitable movement in the second session resourcing the "eye". Rolf yoga works well with integrating the second hour work. This exercise mimic's the movement of the foot in gait. For the neck, work the cervical tissue in the direction of correction. Slow melting amounts of pressure can be given with the client seated and work with elbows into the clients traps. With client supine, place fingers in sub-occipitals, lengthening into posterior portion. If there is time some standing tracking before finishing is great. Pelvic lift or pull finishes the second session. Chiropractic, Physical Therapy, or Massage Therapy are not substitutes for an Advanced Rolfing Fort Worth Ten Series.

Advanced Rolfing Fort Worth views the human body as a social, spiritual and scientific enigma. Like the proverbial onion the body has many layers and as each one is peeled back for closer inspection the complexities are marvelous. The Advanced Rolfing Fort Worth Dallas ten series Rolfing "recipe" has the ability to impact multiple layers, differentiating functionally and structurally, yet maintaining a wholistic intent. Advanced Rolfing can generate responses locally or system wide for ease of movement in space as well as functionality in time. The ten-series is an order of events protocol with specific principals, goals, and anatomically specific sites with some variables because of the Anterior/Posterior models with associated anomalies. This article serves as a brief exploration and journey into the Rolfing Ten-Series as seen by an Advanced Rolfer® & is designed to be brief & informative.

First Hour: Adaptability & Preparation (1–2–3) 3D: x, y, and z axis-static. Preparing the body to receive order precedes establishing order. Changes introduced anywhere in the body must be capable of being integrated and sustained by the whole. The clients' natural pattern & asymmetry must be identified first. The goals of the first hour are freedom of breath; address asymmetries of both girdles, spine, arms, & hands. Develop a sense of "who the client is" & review intake evaluation. By assessing the client standing or sitting the practitioner gains insight into how the shoulder girdle moves or doesn't move and how this affects the ribs and the breath. Movement and lack of movement in the arms are included in a decision of first-hour intention. Freeing the breath sends a system-wide signal to begin adapting and preparing for more change and is manifest in the fascia as release. Working with client supine, practitioner can assess the ribs and diaphragm involvement, the rate of inspiration and expiration of breath, and which is preferred part of cycle. The lines of tension in the arms will be addressed here for the way they transmit into the shoulder girdle and neck. Practitioner should observe Rhomboids/Pectoralis Minor relationship towards glenohumeral junction as well as Diaphragm/Serratus relationship at the ribs. With client now sideline practitioner moves to assess space between the pelvis and femur and if they move like a block or differentiated elements, creating space if necessary. Lengthening hamstrings is first-hour protocol differentiating the two. Neck and back work is broad and connecting from Occiputs to C7 and Erectors to Sacrum. Practitioner ends first session with Pelvic lift.

The Advanced Rolfing Fort Worth session three completes what was initiated in the first and second hour; defining the body in three-dimensional space (x, y, z). This session should allow the inhibited tissue in the sleeve to ease and enable the work to transition to a deeper layer in the fourth session. The main goals in the Advanced Rolfing Fort Worth third hour are to address structural relationships that limit the lateral line, Z dimension, and address associated rotations/counter rotations in the arms, legs, and torso. Develop a more balanced relationship between the shoulder girdle and thorax enabling it to move freely on ribcage and in lateral line by Rolfing the structures that shift the body anterior and posterior. Differentiate the arms from the scapula and address inspiration/expiration issues and horizontals by resolving the structures that are associated with the primary tilt contributors The thorax to pelvis relationship of freeing eleventh and twelfth ribs, Q.L. and thoraco-Lumbar fascia down to L4 must all be addressed in the third hour. To traction the client's arm while it is extended above their head in sideline exposes the spatial relationships of these segments. Work to further normalize side bends with rotations in the spine and the effect that it has on the ribs. The ribs are directly affected by the asymmetry in the spine. Make sure to work the x,y,z planes in the tissue of the IT band lateral line and continue to horizontalize the pelvis. Address the interosseous membrane of low leg by addressing the x,y,z planes in the tissue and the tibia fibular relationship. Seated back work in flexion and extension, and push reach with pelvic triangle awareness. The back work at MDH should lengthen front and back proportionately. Pelvic lift, general neck work and lift at the sub occipitals to end Advanced Rolfing Fort Worth 3rd session.
