SERVICES
Professional Structural Integrator.
Most of my clients experience noticeable improvement within their first or second session when they recieve this unique style of bodywork. People often feel freer in their body, and more reaxed,- even emotionally, immediately after a session,(see testimonials below)
Documentaion shows that the benefits of this bodywork are cumulative and lasting.
Structural Integration is a process of soft tissue body work that improves misalignment in the skeletal structure, threreby creating better symmetry and a more upright body. Pain is often a symptom of a misaligned structure. Chronic discomforts (both physical and emotional) often dissappear as the body becomes more balanced and supportive of itself.
This technique is very effective in aligning hip joints with each other, balancing shoulder heights, creating increased space for breathing, and much more. As these changes occur, people experience ease in their body, everyday movements become more fluid and require less effort than before, pain frequently disappears. There is often an increase in energy experienced as the body is then using less energy for basic movement and function.
Since graduating from the Rolf Institute, Boulder Colorado in 1988, I've specialised in the practice of Structural Integration. I am a member of the Rolf Guild - www.rolfguild.org, and also the International Association of Structural Integrators - www.structuralintegration.org. Excellent information about the process of Structural Integration, and its wide range of benefits, is available at each of these sites.
"Rolfing" is a brand name of Structural Integration. Practitioners of SI are following the guidelines developed by Dr. Ida Pauline Rolf (1896-1979).
Each SI practitioner develops their own style of achieving the SI goals. Clients tell me that they feel better when they leave here, more relaxed in their body and optomistic in their being. As the structural changes are cumulative and lasting, they have found that this process bodywork helps them stay in good shape to deal with life’s ups and downs.
You are welcome to call me on 9383 7505 to discuss your own unique bodily and life circumstance. If you are inquisitive, but unsure about what SI would be like, or if it's the right thing to do, I offer a no obligation, free 15 minute consultation.
Health fund rebates available.
TESTIMONIALS
* Having suffered from headaches and migranes almost daily for nearly 20 years, and having tried every therapy out there from Chiropractic, Osteopaths, Physio, accupuncture, massage, naturopaths, chinese medicine and the headache clinic. I heard about Structural Integration and thought what do I have to lose. I arrived at my first appointment with a severe headache, by the end of the treatment the headache had gone, and also the feeling of pressure at the base of my skull had gone. That hadn't happened before. Now 3 sessions later I have been headache free for 4 weeks. This may not sound like a great deal but since I was 15 years old (when I received an accidental kick in the teeth during a football game) I have lived with a constant headache- that means everyday. People have also commented that I look different and my wife tells me I am not Mr Grumpy anymore.
I know it's early days but thank you Paula for enabling me to focus on life and not my headaches.

March 08, Domenic is still headache free.
* Structural Integration has affected me in two ways - 1.Physical 2.Emotional. I've had RSI in my hands for four years, tried many different therapies but no long term success. SI has enabled me to have a more normal life where I can use my hands eg. in the garden and housework. I still get some pain, but it comes and goes more quickly.
Emotionally, I have noticed an increase in my confidence levels after each session! - I was a very quiet and insecure person. The sessions have improved my wellbeing enormously and I whole heartedly recommend this technique, and Paula, to anyone! and I have!

* These sessions with Paula are so effective that this is only my 3rd session in 3 years. I noticed after my last session that I'd grown 1/4 inch! I'm 44 years old so that is unusual. I have not suffered from a wry neck since my first session, what a relief !
Rose. March '99
* I have just completed my 11th session of Structural Integration. On a physical level I feel aligned and standing tall, but on a mental or emotional level I have experienced something strange. I have felt more confident or assertive than I have ever felt in my life. This aspect has been observed by my collegues at work who have passed comment. Well I am glad to have been Structurally Integrated. I'll be back.
R. H. Jan '98
* Having had major surgery in March 1991 for cancer of the prostate, I felt the area around the pelvis was very restricted to movement. 12 months later it felt as if it was hard and gave a great deal of discomfort especially when picking objects up off the ground.
In August 1992 I started a course of Structural Integration, and the pelvis area received treatment which has made a profound difference to my body movements, the feeling of hardness has disappeared and also the discomfort.
Also another change I have noticed while being Structurally Integrated is that my reading vision has improved at 68 years old the optometrist has reduced my reading glasses strength.
