What kind of training is required for Rolfers?
Even though all Rolfers in Florida are required to be licensed under massage therapy, massage certification is only the first pre-requisite for the Rolfing training. Rolfing students must also get ten sessions of Rolfing, Rolf Movement sessions, and do case studies before entering the basic training, which consists of two nine-week periods of training and the completion of an anatomical thesis. Advanced Rolfers have an additional nine weeks of training, plus a minimum of three years of practice. Rolfing Movement Practitioners have taken an additional month of movement training.
