About Andrea
I am a Certified RolferTM, having trained at the European Rolfing® Association in Munich over the course of 3 years. I have taught yoga classes, workshops and training courses around the UK since 1994.
I am interested in exploring how we as individuals can develop integrity and maturity in movement. Finding a healthy relationship with gravity and the space in which we live allows us to develop integrity and harmony in all aspects of life. Rolfing is a process of soft tissue manipulation combined with movement education and perceptual work, that balances and realigns your body by releasing tension and strain. Rolfing can be helpful for those who experience pain, stiffness or chronic fatigue, or the lingering effects of past accidents, illnesses, trauma, manual work or the aging process. It helps you find a deeper awareness of the movements of your body and can be very helpful for yoga practitioners, as well as those who do a lot of sport or dance. Rolfing encourages a greater sense of poise and ease of movement.
A Rolfing process usually consists of 10 sessions, each lasting 60-90 minutes, and generally spaced 1-4 weeks apart. Sometimes a course of 3 sessions is enough. Under your Rolfer’s skillful eye and touch, each session is tailored to your unique structure and builds progressively on the results of the previous sessions.
