Reset* -Your body rebooted
is based on the scientifically validated work of Dr Ida. P. Rolf. I am a certified Advanced Rolfer but also bring other healing modalities into my treatments. For this reason, I have chosen the trading name "Reset" because it more accurately describes what I do. *Formerly Rolfing Tai Chi London As a long time student of Tai Chi, I have developed a sensitivity and an understanding of how to work with the subtle energies in the body. As a Rossiter stretching coach, I am also able to work with heavier clients or highly toned athletes such as rugby players and martial artists who may need a strong touch. As a Rolfer, I have learned to see and feel which approach is appropriate and to encourage each person I see to move towards balance and freedom. |
What benefits might you expect?
Undergoing the full Re•Set program of up to ten, 1-hour sessions, is like giving your body a 100,000-mile service. Restoring your body (as far as is possible) to factory settings.
More specifically, improving postural alignment, muscle coordination and your sense of balance brings greater freedom of movement and increases the amount of energy available to enjoy life.
On a much deeper and more profound level, the Re•Set program is a re-education which teaches you:
My job then is to 'debug' your software. To help you recognise and change redundant and unhelpful patterns so that your responses become choices and lead to greater wellbeing, not further harm. The changes we make in this way will have benefits which last a lifetime.
The Re•Set program is, therefore, one of the best investments that you can make for your future wellbeing.

- How, as a unique individual, you respond to the world you find yourself in.
- How your responses have become habits which shape your body and the way you move.
- How the habits you have evolved are like a type of system software which occasionally needs updating.

FAQs
Who can benefit from Re•Set?
My clients come for a wide variety of reasons;
For this reason, I like to see potential clients for one ‘evaluation” session before we commit to a schedule. It is essential that we feel comfortable with each other as therapist and client. It is also important that you have some sense of how the treatment feels. During this first session, I am keen to understand your expectations for the work thoroughly. I will not waste your time or money with further treatments if I don’t think I can help you, but I may have suggestions for other avenues to explore.
My clients come for a wide variety of reasons;
- busy people for help with the effects of stress,
- athletes and performers searching for new ways to reach their full potential or to speed recovery from injury,
- children for help with growing
- People working with mental and emotional change who also wish to let go of old and limiting postural habits which no longer serve them.
- Ordinary people (and sometimes animals) who want to be free from pain or to feel more comfortable in their bodies

How many sessions will I need?
Each client adapts to the work at a different rate, some change very quickly, some unwind at a more leisurely pace. It is essential to respect the body's inherent wisdom here and neither force the pace nor unnecessarily stretch out the sessions. For this reason, I allow between 8 and 12 sessions to achieve the optimum results. The overall aim is to Reboot your body and then Future-Proof it against some of the most common posture and movement-related pain issues.

Why do I work with fascia?
Recent scientific research has discovered that 90% of nerves which transmit pain, terminate in fascia. This means that what is often diagnosed as muscle pain, is in fact fascia pain. Treatments which focus on changing the condition of muscles are therefore often disappointing.

What is Facia and what goes wrong with it?
Fascia is an intelligent matrix of fibres which connects everything to everything in the body. In its natural, healthy state, fascia consists of fibrous sheets lubricated and separated by a fluid substrate containing a substance known as Hyaluronan.
Through injury, postural holding or certain diseases, fascial layers can become dehydrated. When this happens, the Hyaluronan transforms into a super strong glue which sticks fascial layers together. Restrictions in muscle and joint mobility and trapped nerve fibres are the usual outcomes when this happens.

How is fascia fixed and how long do the results last?
Tightly glued fascia is not a condition which is solved by massaging muscles or clicking joints. Separating this dry, scar-like tissue requires specific direction, depth and duration of touch. A specialised skill that Rolfers have been studying and practising for over 70 years. This type of tissue manipulation has proved more successful than many other methods in resolving pain issues because it addresses the root cause of the myofascial pain, not just the symptoms.
In addition, The Re•Set method seeks to change the movement or postural habit that caused the problem in the first place. In the majority of cases, this truly holistic approach results in a long-lasting or permanent change.
