Robert McWilliams Certified Advanced Rolfer, Rolf Movement Practitioner Thoughts on Rolfing® Structural Integration and Rolf Movement® Integration work and general though Transformation was at the center of Dr. Ida P.

I really love what I do as a Certified Advanced Rolfer and Rolf Movement practitioner. Generally that means I work with clients who come for help with musculoskeletal complaints but this often turns into a voyage of discovery through the whole body: how distant parts can affect each other; how an improved sense of well-being in the body can lead to a new sense of self. Rolf's vision for her work, and it still is. Sometimes it takes a few sessions for that aspect to emerge for people, and usually it is after they realize how intimately connected body and mind can be, as revealed by body-oriented work. Getting oriented in our felt sense in the body, in our relationship to gravity and to perception of and movement into space is part of the process. "Where Am I" is then a key question. As we pursue deeper relationships in the body, which we term core work, the key question is :"Who Am I?". As we pursue an invigorated sense of relationship between newly freed-up and differentiated parts of the body, a sense of mobilization ensues: "Where Am I Going?" becomes the key. Part of my gift, I feel, is finding ways to supplement the structural integration work with practices and questions that stimulate continued development of sensory, coordinative and spatial awareness. Some of that will involve fitness and strengthening work, as my long background in professional dance has taught me a lot about life-long best practices in fitness for longevity, health and optimizing athletic performance. If you are looking for a personal athletic best, no matter your age, I welcome that! If you are looking for a way to feel better, more relaxed and centered in the midst of transition, I welcome that! If you are getting weighed down by nagging injuries and want to feel better, I welcome that! This work can really help, and I want to invite you to contact me to set up an appointment, or just to talk in person or phone/email if you would like more information.

*Hyaluronic acid (HA) formed a seamless network through all lung compartments, connecting with vessel walls and nerve sheaths linking directly to the global fascial system.

*Tiny airborne carbon particles travelled through this connective network — inside and beyond the lungs!

*Mouse lungs showed similar organization but lacked HA in alveolar walls, a subtle species difference in fascial architecture.

The study shows that interstitial spaces are communication highways between organs; pathways through which inflammation, infection or cancer may spread (even hinting at a fascial link between the lung and brain).

Every breath , movement and touch transmits force through this HA-rich matrix — shaping physiology, immunity & health.
