The classic book about Structural Integration was written by Dr. Rolf herself.
Ida P. Rolf, Ph.D. Rolfing. Reestablishing the Natural Alignment and Structural Integration of the Human Body for Vitality and Well-Being. Healing Arts Press. Rochester, Vermont. 1989.

• For links to interesting and thought-provoking articles, check out Robert Schleip’s web site.
For a more entertaining take on the work, I’ve now placed an article from the March 2007 Vogue magazine on my site. Click here to read it. TBD
