Hellerwork is based on the work of Joseph Heller, who also originally
trained in Rolfing. He expended his
work to include movement re-education. Hellerwork uses the same
deep tissue manipulations as Rolfing, but includes verbal interactions
that focus on the individual's personality traits and attitudes
toward life. Hellerwork emphasizes structural balance and movement
education. It also incorporates deep tissue massage, releasing fascial
restrictions, postural alignment and body awareness. It's goal is
to realign the body and release chronic tension and stress.
