Briefs are best for men; traditional panties and bra work well for women. If you're not comfortable with this stage of undress, a two-piece bathing suit or a pair of short, cotton gym shorts is a good choice. I can work with a variety of clothing, just keep the following in mind: You must be comfortable. Unlike massage, Rolfing requires you to get up from the table and walk around periodically. Clothing should not pinch or bind. If you can lie on the table and pull one knee to your chest without resistance, you’re in good shape. Clothing should allow me to view and work your upper legs, mid-back, and neck. It’s also a good idea to bring some work-out clothes (shorts, yoga pants, tee-shirt, etc.) if we want to incorporate stretches using yoga mats, balance balls, or other training equipment. What NOT to wear Fragrance. Many of my clients are highly-sensitive to smells. Even pleasant ones. Sorry to ask, but please refrain from wearing perfume or cologne when you come for a session. Mosturizers, lotion or oils. Lotion on your skin makes it difficult to manipulate tissue layers effectively. The day of your session, it is helpful if you refrain from applying any type of moisturizer that does not completely absorb into your skin. Also… Please don’t come in sick! Neither my other clients nor I want to get sick. Please contact me and I’ll be happy to reschedule. 4 ROLFING® STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION INFORMED CONSENT AND THERAPY POLICIES I fully understand that the bodywork & movement education I will be receiving is for the purpose of gaining balance, ease, and alignment of the physical body. This is done through direct manipulation and education so that greater economy and freedom of body movement are achieved. I understand it is necessary for the Rolfer™/Massage Therapist/Yoga Instructor to touch my body in an appropriate manner in order to assist me in establishing balance and ease in my physical body. I give the Rolfing Practitioner/Massage Therapist/Yoga Instructor my permission and consent to do all those things necessary in helping me establish balance and alignment, including, but not limited to touching my body. I give the Rolfing Practitioner/ Massage Therapist/Yoga Instructor full privilege and license to work on my body in order to assist me in establishing balance and alignment therein. I further understand that I may at any time revoke such permission and consent, and can choose to discontinue the session and/or series of Rolfing. I understand that the therapist does not diagnose illness, disease, or any further physical or mental disorders. As such, the therapist does not prescribe medical treatment or pharmaceuticals, nor do they perform spinal manipulations. I understand that bodywork is not a substitute for medical treatment or diagnoses and that it is recommended that I see a physician for any physical ailments that I may have. I acknowledge that the information I have provided on this form is correct and current to the best of my knowledge. I understand that it is my responsibility to inform the therapist of any changes to this information. I understand that if I experience any unusual discomfort and/or pain during my sessions it is my responsibility to inform the therapist so that they can adjust the pressure or technique being used. With all this in mind, I agree to receive Rolfing® Structural Integration/massage/yoga or movement instruction and hold the practitioner harmless for any problem that might seem to arise as a result of a therapy session. I acknowledge that arriving in a timely fashion is my responsibility. I will give a minimum of 24 hours notice if I need to change or cancel my appointment. If I am unable to give 24 hours notice, I agree that I am still responsible for the session fee. I will pay a $25 fee for any returned check. If I have an illness, I agree to contact the Massage Therapist/Rolfing Practitioner/Yoga Instructor so a decision can be made about rescheduling. Fees are due and payable at the time services are rendered, unless prior arrangements have been made. I understand that an additional $15 may be added to my session fee for scheduling a session last minute or in less than a 24 hour time period. I agree to come in clean and non-intoxicated. If intoxicated I understand that I will not be provided a Massage/Rolfing/Yoga session and that I am responsible for the full session fee.
