“Rolfing lets your body occupy its full space.” – 7 year-old client.
Core Values:
Caring, effective treatments based on intuitive as well as educated means with sustainable results: Rolfing® for mobility, nerve work for easing pain, joint and internal organ release to free feet, ankles, knees, hips, pelvis, low back, ribs, neck and cranium, and in-depth movement work.
My manual therapy draws on decades of body wisdom as a 25-year professional dancer. It combines Rolfing® Structural Integration, a powerfully effective system of deep-tissue work, with my own brand of exercise therapy, cranial sacral, peripheral nerve, muscle, ligament and visceral manipulation treatments. Clients report (see testimonials) that my sessions are virtually pain free. They will help align your muscles and bones to allow for easy, efficient, more powerful motion that helps with chronic pain. The sessions enhance athletic potential and correct the cause of pain in gentle, graduated-pressure contacts, and simple movement strategies. Come to me to help ease chronic pain, correct its cause and rehabilitate injury ranging from nerve pain, sciatic pain, hip and pelvic pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, neck pain, headaches, foot pain and whiplash.
Rolfing sessions can release years worth of accumulated physical tension and stress. Many people report feeling deeply refreshed and even transformed after my Rolfing sessions. You’ll feel a lot better overall! You will eliminate or greatly ease the cause of your pain and stiffness sustainably. By being better aligned and more relaxed, you’ll improve your relationship to your own body, how how you interact with others and the world.
I also offer Rolf Movement® sessions, in person and online, where we focus on movement awareness, core stability, coordination and fluid power. I recommend these for all seeking enhanced movement ability.

DEEPER THAN MASSAGE… MORE COMPLETE THAN CHIROPRACTIC
My passion for movement and art led me long ago to become a Certified Rolfer™. It transformed my dancing, greatly increasing my level of athletic performance through improved alignment, coordination, flexibility and muscle balance. Over time, this increased body awareness also led to a greater expressive power and sense of relaxation, both onstage and in my daily life.
I am a certified Boulder Rolfer trained at the The Rolf Institute in Boulder, Colorado. I am now a Certified Advanced Rolfer™, as well as a Certified Rolf Movement Practitioner, which allows me to offer subtle coordinative and perceptual treatments to help people integrate and sustain the benefits of the hands-on work that much better. This is a natural outgrowth of my long and continuing movement practice, and is focused on helping you find ease in movement in a straight-forward, not complicated way.
As part of my practice, I offer: Visceral Manipulation, gentle techniques to help ease restrictions in the internal organs and unwind trauma, especially good for whiplash and accidents; am trained to treat pain directly by easing the body nerves and understanding how strains in these can be caused by restriction in the myofascia, organs, and joints, and how they need to be relieved; trained in slow motion boney adjustments of the pelvis that can completely take away your low-back or sciatic pain and Sourcepoint Therapy, an energy healing modality.
I have advanced training and years of supervised practice, and my passion is to provide my clients with the very best possible experience of Rolfing in Boulder and Oklahoma City. Let me bring the benefits of my experience to you!
Does Rolfing Hurt?
Rob explains how he and clients work with (and through!) discomfort in a Rolfing session.
Boulder Rolfer & Bodyworker
How Can Rolfing Help With Back Pain: resolved in 3-5 sessions. Painful nerves are eased, restrictions in the pelvis, legs, neck and mid-back released, restrictions in the viscera ( internal organs) resolved through manipulation.The parts of your body need to relate in harmony. We anchor that via a personalized movement stability program, which can involve exercises for muscles and also body/mind awareness.
Rolfing helps you find an increased sense of support from the ground up through your body. Lack of this kind of support, in gravity, is the cause of most chronic pain. We learn to compensate and mold ourselves around old physical injuries and emotional holding patterns. A Boulder Rolfer will help you put your muscles and bones where you want them to be to allow for pain-free, easy, efficient, more powerful motion.
The increased support gained from Rolfing gives you better resilience to new injuries, problems and insults that come your way. Many people find a deep sense of renewal and transformation from this work, physically, emotionally and spiritually. A good Boulder Rolfer can help you uncover new strengths and resources in your self, and helps you feel more energy for work, play, relationships and self-development.
