According to the American Chiropractic Association, more than 80 percent of people will experience back pain at some point in their lives. Pam Reaves, owner of Eastern Shore Rolfing, says, “Now is a great time to alleviate and prevent pain, and to live at ease in your body.”

Rolfing is a form of manual therapy that applies pressure to tight areas on the body much like a massage but more therapeutic like physical therapy. A session lasts an hour and 75 minutes and is slow and deliberately executed to address bound-up areas. Clients normally feel relief after one session, but benefit optimally with at least three appointments.
