Let your structure work for you

In Ida Rolf speak it means  “align’, “unravel”, “lengthen”,  “balance”.  This brings health and ease into the structure.  We also want to re-align, reorganize and unwind the pieces of the body and integrate them so  there is a whole balanced structure.

Structural Integration is one of the foremost ways to do this.  The concepts are balancing the structure to work within the gravitational field.   We want a working structure.  We also want it to be able to function in and with gravity; not have gravity work against it.

I want my clients to feel the space inside, the flexibility and ease of movement.  This healing takes on a life of its own.  The body comes alive.

What Is Airplane Mode?

Airplane mode was introduced because of potential concerns that cell phones could cause interference with aircraft instruments during flight. The basic function of airplane mode or flight mode is to block cell tower reception so the phone cannot send or receive wireless communications — while still allowing users to access the rest of a smartphone’s features, like Wi-Fi, music, podcasts, and games. Because many of the same signals that are used for communication by pilots are the same used to connect phones to cell towers, there could be interference if an entire flight full of smartphones were trying to connect at the same time as the plane’s computer system.

Potential Risks of In-Flight Cell Phone Use

In 1991, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) banned the use of most cell phones and wireless devices during flight. Air traffic control needs to have a constant, direct line of communication with pilots, and there were concerns that cell phone signals could interfere with the ground networks used for communication. While it’s not currently thought that they cause serious harm, there’s a risk that they could create delays and cause confusion for pilots.  The most crucial time for pilots to have this connection to air control is during takeoff and landing, when signals and communications are coming in rapidly and time is of the essence. Even the potential for a cell phone signal to interrupt a pilot during this window is what initially led to regulators requiring that their customers switch to airplane mode.

What Happens if You Don’t Turn on Airplane Mode?

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and aircraft manufacturers like Boeing conducted a series of tests in the 1990s about the potential interference caused by cell phone signals with an aircraft’s communication and navigation systems. While there wasn’t conclusive evidence either way that these signals do, in fact, interfere with critical aircraft systems, the ban has been left in place out of an abundance of caution. Those who choose not to turn on airplane mode will not only be defying FAA regulations, but they’ll also probably be disappointed to know that most cell phone signals aren’t powerful enough to reach your phone while airborne.

Will We Ever Be Able to Use Cell Phones In-Flight?

In 2023, the European Union ruled that airlines can start allowing passengers to use 5G cell phone service in flight, just as they would on the ground. However, Americans might have to wait a little longer — the 5G frequencies used in the U.S. are much stronger than Europe, and there are still potential safety concerns.  That said, most airlines in the U.S. now offer in-flight Wi-Fi coverage, and some — like Delta or JetBlue — even offer it to all passengers for free. That allows passengers to stay connected in the skies, even if they can’t make voice calls. Plus, you might find it easier to relax on a flight if there aren’t 150 other passengers around you talking on their phones — at least for now.

Do something differently.

If pain doesn’t go away; if you feel physically as though you cannot do what you had before or you just want to look better… Try Structural Integration.  It can reshape your body and have it function more efficiently.

Then maintain this with follow-up sessions.  This to counteract the effects of gravity and  keep you performing optimally.

Getting to the core is a beautiful thing.  You cannot strengthen it until you get to it.  And that requires peeling off the layers until you get to the core.  You can form the structure around it to support it.

There is an openness that gets to an inner space. That extra room for movement or spiritual input or for finding that center; that vertical line of intention.  There is much to explore in getting to the core.  And such a peace when you arrive.

Let me help you get there.

Molding the Body with Structural Integration.  In the process of getting this work, the tissue becomes more malleable so it can be shaped or moved or aligned to its original form.

Maintain your body as you do your lifestyle, your car, your house, your friendships.  It takes continuous effort.  

Keeping your activities at their peak is done by continued maintenance on your body so that you can easily go from season to season ready for the next activity.  

Balance, flexibility, resilience and pain free movement go a long way to enjoying your body as you do your lifestyle, your car, your house and your friendships.

Any body can benefit from Structural Integration. There has been much study and research in the area of fascial tissue pointing to its value and ability to restore itself.   It helps a person thrive!

The body can be tormented by pain, lack of movement, being out of order and with a  lack of well-being.  This brings the body down and it suffers.

Structural Integration brings about  balance in the body, making it flexible, pain free and resilient.  The structure is aligned.  But also the whole being.

This can be miraculous for those dealing with chronic injuries, wanting to perform at peak ability and generally looking and feeling better.

Time to thrive!

Scars can be debilitating, unsightly, uncomfortable, painful even. Old ones, new ones, inside or outside of the body. There can still be trauma in them. Cuts, surgeries, burns, all of them have an impact.

My ScarWork blends the scar into the surrounding tissue and therefore with the rest of the network of tissue in your body. So more flexibility in the area, more movement and more confidence in how you look.

Weirdly enough, scars can greatly impact the body. I can help improve their impact.
