methods of practice

rolfing® structural integrative bodywork, vinyasa yoga asana, and breath work inform my approach to guide clients toward truth awareness, balance of function, and clarity of intent. the nature of this work leads consciousness and the body into deep and clear relationship through direct hands-on manual therapy and movement.

the rolf method of structural integration was pioneered by dr. ida rolf during the middle of the 20th century.  originally a student of the mechanistic and fragmented medical research that has defined our modern pharmaceutical and surgical approach to health, dr. rolf found her truth by evoking the holistic energetic balancing qualities inherent in our living breathing bodies.  through carefully practiced touch and a dynamic capacity for observation, dr. rolf created a profound legacy of structural, functional and integrative bodywork practices.   

testimonials

‘Travis invites you to enter into a partnership with him and with your body. In the past, I have received body work solely to fix aches and pains I was experiencing. Even when I recognized the value in seeing each symptom as a manifestation of a larger, systemic issue in my body, Travis encouraged me to be fully present to what arose as he worked on the interconnected, physiological systems of my body. Feeling supported in this way by Travis, I was able to learn more about myself both somatically and emotionally, and have insights into larger life issues connected to the body work I was receiving. Not only did I benefit from Travis addressing my presenting complaints systemically, but I learned a new way to be in relationship to my body and gained insight into my approach to living.’
