Ida Rolf said “there is no such thing as painful Rolfing or painless Rolfing, there is just doing the work.” If it’s painless it often isn’t reaching the restricted layers that need to be released to create systemic structural change.

Dr. Rolf viewed the body and mind as a unified being. She expressed that what the client labels as pain during a session is the nervous system’s reluctance to let go of a long held pattern. That resistance to change in attempt to hold onto the old structure is what people experience as pain. The intensity of the work is equal to the level of the body’s resistance. The pain however isn’t being created by the practitioner. It is actually the rapid release of pain held in the body in the form of shortened tissues being lengthened that is misinterpreted as pain going into the system, where as it is actually pain leaving the system. When the person stops resisting the sensation and breathes into it the feeling of pain usually transforms into a sense of release and integration. It is also worth noting that more body aware individuals generally describe the experience as “good pain” denoting the active release of restrictions from the body.
