Rolfing Texas Ten Series-Session 10
In the final session of the RolfingŪ ten series there is no
"new" work to initiate . This is the final opportunity for the
RolferŪ to bring resolution to the client's body. Tenth hour: Closure/Holism
(8-9-10) 3D, present time, dynamic.
The main goal for the Rolfing tenth hour is to establish
functional alignment from the ankles to the A/O joint. This is the opportunity
to bring this clients body to the highest level of integration possible.
Observe the breath and its transmission through the body and how the client's
Psycho-emotional level manifests' in the body. Movement should be fluid and
orientation to G or G' tendencies should be considered.
If more intra oral work is needed now is the time to do it and
initiate further integration in x, y, z-axis from top down and vertical
integration from the bottom up. Tracking from the front and from behind is also
ideal in tenth hour, considering horizontals at joints connecting segments, and
diaphragms. The structure needs to be homogenous, stable, and palintonicaly
open at its current level of order. The whole session should be considered an
integrative session, get everything smooth and unlocked. Neck work should be
where any potential can be seen and back work could be broad and integrative.
Pelvic lift or pull will end tenth hour. Leave time to say good bye, it has
been an important process for both RolferŪ and client and obvious growth and
healing has taken place. Let the client know some recommendations for future
work.
In Conclusion, Fascia, like ripples of dark matter that engulf
all of creation, engulfs the mind and body of man and woman. From the double
bag theory of the connective tissues ability to fold in on itself to create an
alternate and complimentary compartment, to the theories of Albert Einstein about
relativity and the effect that mass has on displacing and warping the void and
enveloping depths of space. The inferences that could be drawn from surveying
our universe are endless and yet we know that the ten series applied
appropriately for each individual can create even more space than was
previously considered. In closing on this exploration through the ten-series
let us re-examine the nature of the series. Its intent is to establish order in
the structure via considering The RolfingŪ Structural Integration wholistic
system and the specific client involved, including environmental and physical
factors.
The order of events for RolfingŪ is the key to creating more
space: Motility precedes mobility-Mobility and differentiation precede
positional change -Congruence of segments precedes higher order
-Sleeve/superficial organization precedes core organization -The establishment
of three functioning dimensions Precedes working with rotational issues
-Appendicular order precedes sleeve order -Order in the arms/shoulder girdle
precedes order in the thoracic inlet-Order in the thoracic inlet precedes order
in the neck-Order in axial complex precedes easy carriage of head.
