Advanced Structural Integration in Los Angeles | The Rolf Method | Craig Dunham
Move with Ease. Restore Your Posture. Resolve Chronic Pain.
I am an Advanced Practitioner of the Rolf Method of Structural Integration. I have been in practice since 2007. This is the original work of Dr. Ida Rolf.
My path to this work was unique. After graduating from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, I sought a deeper understanding of human potential. This eventually led me to the Guild for Structural Integration, where I trained under direct students of Dr. Ida P. Rolf. Today, I help professionals, athletes, and chronic pain sufferers rediscover a sense of space and effortless posture through the original 10-Series method — serving all of Los Angeles, from my studio in Santa Monica.
Who I Work With
- People with chronic pain or stiffness
- Those who have completed Physical Therapy but still feel restricted or in pain
- Athletes and active people
- Desk workers with posture issues, “Tech neck”
- Performers and creatives
- Those who have tried deep tissue massage but are looking for longer lasting structural change
- Anyone seeking deeper embodiment and ease
What is Structural Integration? (The Method commonly known as Rolfing) While many search for “Rolfing Los Angeles”, “Rolfing Santa Monica”, or “Rolfing near me,” the technical name for this work is Structural Integration. It is not a traditional massage or myofascial release session; it is a systematic process of soft tissue manipulation designed to organize the body’s connective tissue (fascia) in relation to gravity.
Why the 10-Series? Unlike random deep tissue sessions, the Rolf Method follows a “Recipe”, a sequence of ten sessions that systematically realigns the body from the ground up. It is the starting point and foundation of this work, but not the endpoint.
- Sessions 1-3: Opening the superficial layers of fascia.
- Sessions 4-7: Addressing the “Core” and deep structural misalignments.
- Sessions 8-10: Integrating the entire system for lasting, functional change.
