Rolfing improves flexibility by lengthening connective tissue throughout the body. Joints have a naturally range of motion-that is, the bones are designed to move toward and away from each other through an arc of a given length. [...]

In a disorganised body, circulation is inhibited by chronic muscle contractions and by strain and compression in soft tissues. By bringing the body into correct alignment with gravity Structural Integration ( Rolfing) removes the impediments to good [...]
