The Rolf 10 Series of Structural Integration is a systematic sequence of theory and technique that Ida Rolf referred to as The Recipe. It consists of 10 sessions (spaced 1 week to 1 month apart) that build upon each other and seek to thoroughly reorganize patterns of strain and dysfunction in the body. This series can be considered the foundation of Structural Integration.
