Kreiss Rolfing® and Chicago Rolfing®

Description

Kreiss Rolfing® and Chicago Rolfing® opened in Chicago at the start of 2002. Committed pedestrians and urban environmentalists themselves, Amanda Kreiss and Brian Marchese have striven to make decisions as practitioners, educators, and community members that ease environmental impacts.

Rolfing® is a practice of ‘manual medicine’ that repositions connective, bony, and visceral tissues to permit a more effective and efficient postural pattern to emerge. Rolfers strategically address relationships within the connective tissue network ( or ‘fascial system’ ) to catalyze the integration of their clients’ bodies structurally and functionally within gravity.

The common thread of those that make their way to Rolfing® is a readiness to transform in ways that extend beyond pure symptom relief to address the broader physical patterns that underlie them. It is an openness to being willing to acknowledge their body as a somatic system as opposed to a collection of discreet parts. Please visit www.kreissrolfing.com for more information.

Commitment

Kreiss Rolfing & Chicago Rolfing have offset 100% of their office and operations emissions.

Quote

“Our bodies are our first and most immediate environment. But they need, too, the inspiration of a star-filled sky or a wind scented with spring. And, certainly, they—these bodies of ours—cannot thrive, nor even survive, without vital inputs from their surrounding environment. We are grateful that Carbonfund.org allows us an opportunity to do our small part to ensure that our work has a context!” - Amanda Kreiss, Kreiss Rolfing®
