5. Is Rolfing Just Another Name For Massage?
No, it's an entirely different type of massage. While most massages focus on the musculature of the body (the muscles), Rolfing focuses on the connective tissue of the human body -- the joints, ligaments, tendons and fascia sheaths throughout the body itself. There is also a focus on the musculature, but the tissues are the main focus. So in a way, rolfing is a more thorough and deep massage than any standard massage you would ever receive.
