In my practice I am asked this question a lot. How often should you come in? This all depends on the client's needs and what our plans are. The most fundamental approach to Rolfing is to do a series of 10 sessions. During that time an individual might come in anywhere from twice a week to once a month, though every week or two is a good general rule of thumb. After the series has been completed, things will take some time to settle. It is said that a Rolfing series is 10 sessions followed by a year of adjusting to the changes made. This does not mean that one needs to wait a year before coming in though. It is suggested that one wait anywhere from 3-6 months before getting more Rolfing work, unless something happens to you and you need more help.
The purpose of systematic work is to help one become more balanced in a sustainable fashion, so if we have achieved this then you hopefully don't need as much attention. Even if a person is doing quite well though, it is a good idea to get some maintenance done, at least a few sessions a year. For others this is too infrequent and they may feel they need to see their Rolfer more often, maybe once a month or so. There are some people that decide they need to come in slightly more than monthly, for many every 3 weeks is good. Sometimes we need more attention until we are stable, so deciding to come in more frequently for a period of time until things balance out is a good idea. In my opion all that really matters is that you feel like it is adding to your quality of life. There does not always need to be too much rhyme or reason. Why not book a Rolfing appointment today?
