As a nurse I worked primarily in the neonatal unit at Children's Medical Center in Dallas and in surgery at St. Lukes Hospital in Houston.

I had the honor of studying with the founder of Rolfing, Ida P. Rolf, in 1976, and was certified as a rolfer in 1977. I took further training and received my advanced certification in 1978. I practiced in the Boulder and Denver areas before moving to Austin full time in 1982.

While in Boulder I also had the honor of studying with Mary Burmiester, who brought Jin Shin Jyutsu to the U.S., and Judith Aston, who began the movement work at the Rolf Institute and later created Aston Patterning.

Rolfing is a path into oneself structurally, functionally and emotionally. Its purpose is to organize the body through the myofascial system in relation to gravity and your environment. With more integrity and order in the body everyday activities can be done with more efficiency and ease.

The work is about the structural relationships within the body and the memories that can be stored there. Through the process, if it is a common goal, I encourage changes that will facilitate your health and assist you in the process of self discovery through your body.
The basic process of Rolfng is a 10 session series, yet you can get a 3 session series to decide if this is the choice of therapy best for you at this time.

Feel free to call with any questions you may have.
