muscles and improves blood 昀氀ow. Physical
therapy is excellent for rehabilitating the
body after injuries, accidents, and surgical
interventions.
If these problems are not addressed quickly,
however, they start to lock the body into a
permanent state of imbalance, limiting our
ability to function and often resulting in chronic
pain. These are the problems that Rol昀椀ng
addresses. Rather than focus on symptoms,
Rol昀椀ng goes to the core of the problem and
treats the entire body. The reason for this is
simple: chronic pain is almost never the result
of a single incident. Rather, it’s the end product
of countless injuries, accidents, bad habits, and
other traumas that have been building up in
our bodies for years and sometimes decades.
The only way we can rid ourselves of these
deep-set imbalances is to treat the body as a
uni昀椀ed whole.
