Semi-Pro Basketball Player I was surprised with the results!  Read more "Being an athlete is a constant pursuit of improving performance and perfecting skill, pushing our human form to get out as much as we possibly can. I was no different going into my Rolfing session - looking for a way to do so without causing stress or strain on my joints or muscles. And boy was I surprised with the results The Rolfing session with Len alleviated a nagging strained hamstring, elongated my arm reach by about 3 inches and undoubtedly improved my overall flexibility - all in one session! Afterwards I felt looser, better balanced and relief in areas of my lower back that I hadn't even realized were constricted. I'm a strong believer that Rolfing is one of the best untapped resources for athletes out there. It's a virtually stress-free, strain-free technique of stretching the connective tissue, allowing you to get more out of what's already there. What's surprising to me that it's benefits still remains relatively unknown in the athletic community. Athletes of all levels could benefit from the results of having Rolfing performed - I'm convinced of it."   Lesley Brown UVA Women’s Basketball WNBA, Detroit Shock Semi-pro, France

Wow!  Read more "The only word I can use to describe my post-Rolfing session feeling is transformed. Seriously, my legs, hips, and back haven’t ever felt so able to move without restriction.

WHY ROLFING DELIVERS SURPRISING RESULTS
The new, gentle Rolfing is the state-of-the-art method for freeing longstanding constrictions in the body. Deeper than massage, Rolfing’s slow and penetrating touch softens contracted fascia (connective tissue)—a thin sheath of sturdy tissue that permeates the entire body, holding muscles, organs and bones together. Often overlooked and ignored by bodywork professionals and the medical community alike, connective tissue, when made supple and free of chronic contractions, promotes elegant posture and allows remarkable ease of movement.  Read more

WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE I was trained at the Rolf Institute in Boulder, Colorado and have Rolfed for eleven years.  Read more WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE Every Rolfer has a unique style and brings differs interests to the table. I’ve been trained as a psychologist, so I am able to understand how stress from the past or present effects the body. I also have a keen interest in nutrition, longevity and peak vitality, and am able to compliment the Rolfing experience by discussing this larger body of knowledge. I also want to live past one hundred and have enjoyable posture, flexibility and strength, and I would love to help you achieve the same!   FEE AND LENGTH OF SESSIONS Rolfing systematically reshapes the body from the smallest toe to the scalp underlying the top of head. Read more FEE AND LENGTH OF SESSIONS Rolfing systematically reshapes the body from the smallest toe to the scalp underlying the top of head. Because of the thoroughness of the work, multiple sessions are necessary to Rolf the entire body once. As a result, Rolfing is known for “the ten series,” an organized, sequential set of sessions that elongate and gives greater symmetry to the body. Sessions are generally scheduled weekly, though twice a month is fine. It is possible, however, to gain benefit from a single session or a shorter mini-series, and, in fact, if you’ve never had Rolfing, I advise that you first do a single sessions so that you experience Rolfing’s effectiveness, even in one session. You should schedule an hour and a half for a session, allowing for postural analysis, bodywork and time to transition after the session. Fee: $150. Cancellation policy: Client covers the full cost of a session if cancellation notice is not given at least 24 hours in advance. What to wear: Men: underwear. Women: underwear and bra. You can be draped under a sheet if you desire. To make an appointment: Phone: 512.701.2831 Email: len@lenworleyphd.com Office Location: 830 W 3rd St, Austin, 78701
