I would seriously consider visiting a Rolfer. There was a point where due to period of inactivity and stress, I began having issues which started in the neck and migrated to pain in the wrists also. After some adjustments and time totally fine now.
Interesting, I’m glad you shared this as I had to lookup what a Rolfer is and came across Wikipedia’s very critical article concluding that there is no good evidence that Rolfing is effective for the treatment of any health condition
If the past few years has taught us anything: it is that practices which are not mainstream and designated with a specific insurance code will not be mainstreamed as much as other mainstream practices. Agree with poster saying that rolfing is just one of many approaches to physical alignment. Ultimately people have to move the body and correct imbalances. Just sharing what worked for me. Many of my colleagues and friends, even younger than myself suffer from lack of movement and tight fascia/overcompensation.
Like chiropracty and acupuncture, lots of things can help people without actually being true or legitimate. It's likely that rolfing consists of a lot of bullshit and one or two parts that happen to sometimes truly help with something. You're better off doing some barbell exercises and stretching based on a studied knowledge of objective anatomy, but you're also better off going to a chiropractor than doing nothing.
Rolfing is just one technique for the highly effective fascia release domain, which is poorly understood by Western health practitioners.
I enjoy the MELT method
