Katie is a certified Rolfer™ in Marin whose hands-on bodywork helps to relieve physical discomfort and enhance structural alignment within the body, reframing it towards balance and ease. Rolfing focuses on identifying fascial restrictions and patterns, understanding how these restrictions and patterns affect the function of the body as a whole, and releasing these to decrease pain and increase function and movement. Each Rolfing session is individualized and tailored to the specific needs of the client. Katie's work isn't just structural; she also educates clients about how to move their bodies in a ways that offer them better support and fluidity in movement. Katie works within the Ten-Series format, which is a ten session framework that follows a progressive protocol (with each session building on the last) to bring optimal organization to the structure. The first three sessions focus on opening up the more superficial fascial layers that restrict one's structure. Sessions four through seven focus on contacting the deeper "core layers" of the body where structural and postural patterns are held. The last three sessions focus on integrating the entire body and reinforcing the structural changes achieved in the previous sessions. Katie does work outside the Ten-Series model, offering individualizes sessions designed to address specific body pain issues, but recommends that clients receive a minimum of three sessions to achieve more profound and lasting results.
