Excerpt: “HOW TO FIND A FASCIA-FOCUSED PRACTITIONER
BODYWORK that focuses on the fascia goes by a few names, including structural integration, myofascial release, and Rolfing. You can find practitioners through the International Association of Structural Integrators (theiasi.net) or the Dr. Ida Rolf Institute (rolf.org), named for the woman who pioneered fascial treatment a century ago. Some physical therapists, massage therapists, and osteopathic doctors also focus on the fascia. Therapists’ approaches can differ. Some treat just a specific problem, but others, especially Rolfing structural integrators, address the whole body over a series of sessions. Ask about their experience with problems like yours.”
