I underwent surgery on both legs twice in my life.  Once when I was just learning to walk as a child, and again in my thirties.

After the surgery in my thirties, I was told not to put any weight on my legs until the bones had fully healed. As a result, I spent three months in a wheelchair and a year on crutches.

After that, I was no longer able to walk as I used to, and I developed chronic lower back pain. I started visiting chiropractors, osteopaths, and massage therapists regularly.

However, I thought to myself,  “I don’t want to rely on chiropractors and osteopaths for the rest of my life. I need to take care of my own body.”  That’s when I discovered Rolfing.

Through Rolfing, I learned how to maintain my own body and reassessed how I use my body in daily life.

We aren’t born with a manual on how to use our bodies.

While it’s sometimes necessary to rely on medical treatment or the care of others, it’s important to understand how to use and maintain your own body.

Just as you take care of your favorite shoes, bags, or clothes, you also need to maintain your body.

I really want people like me to know this.

Our daily habits and routines can lead to ways of using our bodies that aren’t kind to them.

We also often compensate for pain by putting too much strain on other parts of our bodies.

If you suffer from chronic pain, such as hip pain, lower back pain, neck or shoulder stiffness, or frozen shoulder, please come and see me.

I would be delighted if Rolfing could be an opportunity for you to reassess your own body.
