Ida Rolf sought to promote human potential by helping clients to approach their highest and best selves. Even today, Rolfing® finds its deepest meaning and greatest success when the work facilitates the transformation of the client towards the fuller expression of self and its connection to the environment.
How can we bring this aspect of the work to the forefront in our practices?
In any Rolfing session or series, tracking the client’s process is key. This process can be tracked quite reliably by observing the client’s — and our own — ANS responses as they arise in the course of the therapeutic relationship. These responses are telling and can be explored, regardless of which taxon (structural, functional, psychobiological or energetic) is emphasized in the session. Once we learn the art of dealing with ANS responses, we can also learn how to modulate them to support the process.
ANS responses are best tracked and modulated – either using touch, language, following the flow of movement or through client education – within the context of a good therapeutic relationship which allows the practitioner to entrain with the client, sense the client and eventually support the client’s process by modulating the ANS response, all while retaining a sound interpersonal boundary.
Maintaining a good therapeutic relationship and tracking the clients’ processes through the ANS response enables Rolfing SI to reach the ontological level — the level at which we are supporting clients in more fully manifesting their best selves in relation to the environment, in being more of who they are.
It is at this level that the most successful Rolfing interventions happen — and by learning the art of using the therapeutic relationship to harness ANS response, you can help your clients achieve the full potential of the work.
