Movement education is a key ingredient for many clients to experience lasting structural and functional changes; manual work with the fascia alone, no matter how skillful, is often insufficient. This case study examines a forty-three-year-old former dancer presenting with lower back pain, hyperextended hips and knees, and an anterior pelvic shift. Before and after pictures of the Second Hour of their Rolfing Ten Series are presented and discussed. This client’s Second Hour intervention included movement awareness exercises based on the principles of ‘Normal Function’. Structural analysis and gait observation were used to distinguish between structurally and functionally determined patterns in the fascial network, guiding targeted manual interventions on the lower legs, hip joints, lower back, shoulder blades, and neck. Movement education using tactile and verbal cues repositioned the hip and knee axes into their physiologically advantageous directions – hip behind, knee in front – resulting in greater body length, improved left-right symmetry, and significantly better shock absorption during gait. This case demonstrates that lasting structural order requires the complementary use of both fascial manual techniques and movement education, inclusive of an understanding of the lumbar lordosis as a physiologically necessary feature of adequate shock absorption.
