What is Rolfing® Structural Integration?

Rolfing@ SI is a type of bodywork that focuses on reorganizing the fascia (connective tissue) within the body in order to let it better function WITH gravity, instead of against it. This helps improve alignment (posture), range of motion, and overall functionality.

About

Michael moved to Chicago in 2016, where he began his professional dance career. He is also a fitness instructor at Studio Lagree Chicago, where is has been teaching since 2018. Michael first found Rolfing® Structural Integration (SI) in 2017 by pure luck, but got off the table of his first session feeling like he had brand new hips. Michael attributes both his resolved pains and improved bodily function to the work he has received through Rolfing SI, and is excited to share this experience with others. Six years of after his first Rolfing session, Michael decided to attend the Dr. Ida Rolf Institute® in Boulder, CO, where he became a Certified Rolfer™ in 2024. During his training, Michael was also drawn to the psychobiological effects of Rolfing: how the body's structure and a person's psychological state are reflections of each other, and how working with both in mind can help create a stronger mind/body balance and connection, improving how we see and interact with ourselves and the world around us. *Discounts available for artists.* Ask about my Referral Program for a special discount!

Testimonials

“I have regained movement in muscles that were very tight and have less pain when I am exercising. I love to over do everything, so the Rolfing has helped me pace myself a little better so that I can be active in my crazy exercise classes longer.”
