"This is the gospel of Rolfing: when the body gets working appropriately, the forces of gravity can flow through. Then, spontaneously, the body heals itself." -Dr. Ida Rolf


"The human body is not static, it's plastic, and that plastic quality enables a persons body to be realigned into a more optimally functioning and feeling human being. Rolfing accomplishes that realignment." -Dr. Ida Rolf

"Over and over again, people come to me, and they tell me, You just don’t know how strong I am. They say 'strength' and I want to hear 'balance.' The strength idea has effort in it; this is not what I’m looking for. Strength that has effort in it is not what you need; you need the strength that is the result of ease." -Dr. Ida Rolf

"Allison is very gifted as a healer. She understands the human body and from her many years of experience, works like a master doing things the master has done a thousand times, with ease and confidence. My movement was quite restricted (from a lower back injury), which is why I went to see Allison. After I completed the 10 sessions, I feel like I have a whole new body. Not only was my lower back able to heal well once Allison opened up so much space in my body, but the rest of my body has opened in a way that I didn't know was possible. Allison's work is much gentler than I expected...having heard about Rolfing for a long time, I expected the work to hurt. It didn't. A couple of times, I had to slow down and breathe through a tough place, but there was none of the pain that some people associate with Rolf. Allison is super intelligent about how the body works, and she has the skill to translate her kinesthetic intelligence into effective, intuitive bodywork. If you hurt, go see her--you will feel better. Even if you don't hurt, go see her--she will help your body find the wellbeing and efficiency of which it's capable."
