Hi, I am Katja Bartsch, a post-doctoral researcher at the Technical University of Munich and a board-certified Structural Integration practitioner.
My postdoctoral research measured the effects of Structural Integration on posture, pain, range-of-motion and soft tissue stiffness. It built on an earlier study that analyzed data that had been collected by Helen James Influence of Rolfing Structural Integration on Active Range of Motion: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
The publication of my more recent study will contribute significantly to scientific knowledge about Structural Integration, and to its recognition by boards of registration, medical institutions and the public.
