What our clients say

"Rolfing has done so much for me it's just surreal. I feel like a new person! Kristin as been able to work with me, and has helped me in so many ways. I have scoliosis, and because of that I have dealt with back pain for years. The back pain I experienced daily is gone. I am able to breathe easier, take larger breaths even. My center of gravity has changed; when I stand I can feel myself settle into that new center. Rolfing has by far exceeded my expectations!"
