Rolfing® Practitioners, practicing in a field with little experimental research and learning often by imitation and intuition, consistently look for links between our experience as practitioners and the established viewpoint of scientific knowledge. The following article, the keynote speech at 1997’s Annual Meeting, provides an interesting perspective on Rolfing’s relationship to the biological sciences. However, instead of “legitimizing” our experience of Rolfing by comparing it with traditional theories, it places the philosophy, science, and art of our profession in the context of recent inquiry about the nature of living organisms. Our experience of the unity of mind and body in our work with living beings finds a context in theories of cognition and the systems of life. We begin to see how Rolling can best be viewed, not by being explained by “science,” but as a vehicle for inquiry at the very edge of biological theory.

Warning – The following is a portrait of an extremely shocking subject-human dissection. Something deep, deeper than the rational mind can easily wrap itself around, reacts to the picture of a human being, alive or dead, being dismembered. There is no easy or comfortable way to talk about it. Why, you might ask, would I want to chronicle a week long class in human dissection? I have no simple answer. The class profoundly moved me and most of the members. Maybe it was the way our leader kept us related to our human donors even as they deteriorated beneath our hands. We crossed into forbidden territory and broke ancient taboos which in earlier ages would have resulted in our own demise. Something very important, something beyond my ability to translate into language, took place when I delved below the surface of human skin. I haven’t written to shock but to illuminate something about death which we shy away from in our modern world. We don’t hunt and butcher our meat, hook and fillet our fish, wring and pluck our chickens. We got our hands dirty in this class and it actually brought us closer to our humanity. I have tried to be faithful to the tactile intensity of the class, to not tone it down too much for comfort. Nothing about the class was comfortable, quite the contrary. Nonetheless, for those who have ever had a desire to see the profound mystery which lies a millimeter below the surface of our human skin, this might prove interesting.

SUMMARYIn spite of the best efforts of some of the greatest thinkers, the mechanisms of gravity, lift, and inertia are unknown. Part 1 of this article explored the relationship of the human body to the ever-varying gravity field. Now we describe how a deeper understanding of the physics of gravity and lift may be derived from study of the ways living systems utilize these phenomena. A novel mechanism is presented for the “lift” experienced in the Rolf work. It is suggested that lift arises from the same mechanism that returns the venous blood from the trunk and lower limbs back to the heart. A counter-current energy exchange takes place between the blood descending in the aorta and the blood ascending in the vena cava. The Rolf work optimizes this energy transfer and thereby enhances the experience of lift. This is accomplished when the great vessels are brought into appropriate relationship with each other, with the vertical, and with the various fascial layers, particularly with the double spiral/oblique musculature described by Dart. The lifting phenomena are not due to an anti gravity ‘force.” Instead, a vertical or spin or “levity” field is set up between the blood spinning and spiraling down the descending aorta and the blood ascending in the vena cava. The phenomenon is related to the “core” sensation described in Rolfing, as well as “the moving Qi between the kidneys” described in the literature of Oriental Medicine. Lift arises because the properties of space are altered in a way that reduces the inertia of the blood and of the surrounding tissues. Postmodern physics, particularly the work of William Day, is leading to logical concepts of space, energy, and motion that are highly relevant to the practice of bodywork, movement therapies, and the understanding of the phenomenon of lift.

“To me, the most important thing is not a specific Rolfing hour: it’s the progression from hour to hour Its the Way you prepare in the second hour for the third hour so that you can get the results of the third hour”Ida P. RolfA Note from The Editor: This review is being republished as some of the text was lost in the first edition published in the December, 1995 edition of Rolf Lines. I extend a sincere apology to the author, review author and the membership.
