What is the difference between the Jenings Method of Myofascial Release and Rolfing¨?
Rolfing is a system of fascial manipulation developed by Dr. Ida Rolf. While Barry Jenings has studied the work of Dr. Ida Rolf through advanced training in the non-formalistic approach to the ten-step program with Dr. Michael Shea, Certified Advanced Rolfer, our courses do not teach Rolfing and are neither affiliated with nor endorsed by the Rolf Institute. The Jenings Method of Myofascial Release is similar to Rolfing in that both styles use techniques called myofascial release. They also share the same goal — to improve clients’ posture and body functioning, as well as relieve their pain. The primary difference between the two styles of work is the investment involved in learning each. The Myofascial Release techniques we teach are just as effective as other styles, but can be learned at a fraction of the cost and time.
