Método terapéutico, manual de recuperación progresiva de la verticalidad del organismo, el Rolfing permite, mediante un trabajo y un tacto personalizados sobre las fascias (el tejido conjuntivo que conecta músculos, huesos, vísceras y meninges), volver a proporcionar al cuerpo flexibilidad y soltura. Enseñándonos a utilizar la fuerza gravitatoria en las posturas y los movimientos cotidianos, desde los más simples (respirar, caminar, sentarse) hasta los más sofisticados (deporte, yoga, danza, arte marcial, canto, meditación o práctica de un instrumento musical), el Rolfing se revela como una poderosa herramienta de realización personal. La primera parte del libro expone la trayectoria de Ida Rolf y los principios teóricos de su disciplina, desarrollada a lo largo del siglo XX. La autora presenta, a continuación, la experiencia del Rolfing y sus ámbitos de aplicación: malas posturas, estrés, tensiones, dificultades de movilidad, dolores crónicos y dolores musculares y articulares, cuyos síntomas podrán aliviarse para, así, recuperar el bienestar, la fluidez, el anclaje y el equilibrio. Hay un capítulo dedicado a la importancia del tacto en los tratamientos y al tacto del Rolfing en particular. La última parte, con numerosas ilustraciones, recapitula la composición y funciones del sistema de la fascia y los tejidos conjuntivos, así como las investigaciones efectuadas sobre el Rolfing y la integración estructural. El objetivo es dar a conocer esta práctica a todos aquellos que se interesen por el organismo humano y que aspiren a abrirse al mundo con más seguridad y confianza.
A therapeutic manual, method of progressive recovery of the verticality of the organism, Rolfing allows, through personalized work and touch on the fasciae (the connective tissue that connects muscles, bones, viscera and meninges), to restore flexibility and ease to the body. By teaching us to use gravitational force in everyday postures and movements, from the simplest (breathing, walking, sitting) to the most sophisticated (sports, yoga, dance, martial arts, singing, meditation or playing a musical instrument), Rolfing reveals itself as a powerful tool for self-realization. The first part of the book presents Ida Rolf's career and the theoretical principles of her discipline, developed throughout the 20th century. The author then presents the experience of Rolfing and its fields of application: bad posture, stress, tensions, mobility difficulties, chronic pain and muscular and joint pain, whose symptoms can be relieved in order to regain well-being, fluidity, anchorage and balance. A chapter is dedicated to the importance of touch in treatments and to Rolfing touch in particular. In the last part, more technical and accompanied by numerous illustrations, France recapitulates the composition and functions of the fascia and connective tissue system, as well as the research carried out on Rolfing and structural integration. The aim of this very complete book is to introduce this practice, already very experienced, to all those who are interested in the human organism and who aspire to open up to the world with more security and confidence.
