"Like yoga, Rolfing is one of those practices that your body instantly tells you makes a lot of sense." - Vogue Magazine (March 2007)

Live in a body free of pain and full of energy...

A flexible, balanced body is prepared from the physical, mental and emotional challenges of pregnancy and motherhood. Rolfing' s soft-tissue manipulation balances your body by releasing tension and strain. Its methods go deeper than simply alleviating symptoms. Rolfing focuses on sustainable, whole-body alignment that promotes lasting health.

Before Pregnancy:
Rolfing prepares you and your body for a comfortable and aligned pregnancy.

During Pregnancy:
For 9 months you and your baby's bodies are growing and changing everyday. Rolfing supports your body through this process of continual change.

After Birth:
After pregnancy many women struggle to get their body back. During pregnancy and birth, muscles and bones take on new shapes in response to your baby's growth and your experience of labor. For instance, the hips and ribs expand and the abdominal muscles move towards the sides of your stomach. After pregnancy, Rolfing reorganizes the body, immediately enhancing structural balance. By educating your muscles and organs back into place and shifting your total body back into alignment, Rolfing accelerates the process of restoring your body to its pre-pregnancy shape.

Healing the Postpartum Belly:

Manual techniques for split abdominals  

Allison's sessions utilize gentle and comfortable techniques that help 're-stitch' the addomen back together after pregnancy and birth. Allison teaches women these techniques so they can continue to work on their own bellies accelerating the process of bringing the abdominals back to center. This work applies to severe 'split' cases but also general cases where women are unhappy with the state of their belly or the rate at which the abdominal tone is coming back together.  

What are separated abs?

A common condition known as diastasis recti, separated abs are often left undiagnosed. Separated Abs can lead to lower back pain, poor and painful posture, and the dreaded "Mummy Tummy" because the ab muscles are unable to do their job.  Click here to read more.

     C-Section Scar Tissue Reduction and Integration
Gentle, Quick, Effective
"With one appointment, I saw an immediate decrease in the dreaded
“shelf” above my scar and a more streamlined core.  At eight weeks
after birth, I’m well on my way to getting my pre-pregnancy body back.

"Allison's approach is professional, direct, and effective. I recommend
Allison to anyone looking for relief from chronic pain, improved
physical efficiency, or expedited/improved recovery from injury."
-Erin Ganser, 37, first-time mom

Testimonials:

"After giving birth, I had little energy and felt physically 'scattered'. I felt like I was still carrying all the weight of pregnancy even though I was no longer pregnant. After each session with Allison, I felt so much lighter and put back together. Allison has a way of working that helps you see past your body image into the wonder of how the body works. I was able to experience myself in a whole new light." D.V.- 35 years old, first time mom

"I have to tell you the hour you spent with me has made a huge difference. Simply changing the way that I walk has brought me so much more comfort in my body. Every time I notice that I'm feeling a little tired or achey somewhere I'm able to adjust my steps accordingly and the discomfort immediately goes away. I feel like my breathing capacity has increased over the past few days along with the release in my sides too - What an awesome gift to give to a pregnant woman!!!!!" -Shannon, Belly Bliss yoga instructor and 2nd-time mom
