Finding a Certified Rolfing Texas
Practitioner
Finding a certified Rolfing Texas Practitioner isn’t really hard to
do. An easy way to find a Rolf practitioner near you would be to
contact The Guild for Structural Integration. Their address is: P.
O. Box 1559, Boulder, Colorado 80306. You can email them at
gsi@rolfguild .org. You can log onto the website:
http://www.rolfguild. org/form.htm, and once in you can click on
USA and then click on Texas. Every certified practitioner is listed
with their name, phone number and email address.
Go through the list one at a time. Call or email each one. Make
notes of the questions you want to ask. If you are emailing each
one you can write an inquiry letter and then copy and paste it into
each email that you send. In a matter of hours or days you may be
hearing from many Rolf practitioners. Finding a Rolfing Texas
Practitioner that is perfect for you may take a bit of time. You
may have specific needs that need to be addressed.
Another consideration in finding a certified Rolfing Texas
Practitioner is cost. Many insurance companies have discovered the
demand for Rolfing as a form of alternative health care and are now
providing insurance coverage for it. Oxford Health Plans and Kaiser
Permanente are two insurance companies that are now covering the
cost of structural integration or Rolfing.
Finding a reputable Rolfing Texas practitioner will not be very
hard, because all Rolfing Texas practitioners are licensed, just as
nurses and doctors are licensed. They attend continuing education
to stay up on techniques. Their training is costly, and the work
isn’t easy. A Rolfer does this job because he/she enjoys helping
people.
To find the best Rolfing Texas practitioner for you, the best
approach is to interview them one at a time. Make an appointment to
talk to them about their practice. How many patients does the
practitioner see in a day or in a month? Does the practitioner
accept your insurance? Ask about the practitioner’s Rolf method? Is
the treatment painful? You can also ask just what results you
should be able to expect.
Most results have been anecdotal, meaning that the people that
have undergone Rolfing have felt better. Some people say they feel
more at home in their bodies, and the changes they feel are long
lasting. Finding a Rolfing Texas practitioner may be as easy as
asking the practitioner to let you talk to some of his/her clients.
The practitioner may not give you the client’s name and contact
information, but you can give your contact information to the
practitioner, who will in turn ask some of his/her clients to
contact you. Then you can talk to people one-on-one about the
Rolfing process.
