Resource Structural Integration

Just enjoying the last few hours of sunshine while studying the wisdom of my mentors and elders while using my new ergonomic book page holder made of upcycled hand carved wood by AKZ farms in Bend, OR.

This is a great tool to reduce strain on the thumb, and ultimately the deep front line from pec minor to thumb.

For all you heavy readers, if you want to try one of these- reach out to Greg at Greg Zorbas !

If you want to try Structural Integration, reach out to me to experience mind/body education and be empowered through the journey of the 10-series!

Hey there Bend! I have a pretty rad opportunity and just 3 spots available!

As a Structural Integrator (some call it Rolfing) This modality provides manual therapy through a process called the 10-series, a clothing on- movement oriented embodiment journey that creates balance in the body and resolves issues around pain, structure, and function in way that allows you to keep and maintain the changes you experience.

Here’s the deal…this is work is typically 155 a session and next year will be 165. I’m offering an opportunity to experience a 10-series with me for 1250, paid in full.

In exchange for this deep discount, we will do before and after posture photos as well as some workbook embodiment exercises/inquiries that relate to each session- both before the session, and after, so we can track the visible and felt changes you’re likely to experience.

The questions, exercises, and photos will be kept by me for research and marketing purposes.
I will offer you copies, and your photos can have face covered/blurred if you prefer.

To clarify…this is what my clients refer to as “life changing” for 300$ discount.

I have only 3 spots available.

✅Sat’s at noon 10/25- 1/17
✅Sat’s at 2pm 10/25- 1/17
✅Mon’s at 3pm 10/12 - 12/14

If you’ve found yourself interested, please message me to schedule an intake call so I can learn about what your goals are and you can ask any questions you might have and decide if this journey feels in alignment for you 😌🙏 Kristine

Good morning Bend, Oregon! I have a pretty great deal I’ll be posting about this weekend. Stay tuned!

I comPLETEY understand needing to wait to schedule if schedules change and things pop up in your life.

I also feel it’s imperative to schedule time to take care of yourself.

I often suggest to clients to find a day and time that works for them and book out their 10-series before the time slot that fits best for them get taken.

I have a handful of days and times that won’t be available again until next January!

And if you need to cancel any of your booked out sessions ahead of time because something comes up…it’s ok. I can use those times for INTRO sessions for new clients.

Life moves fast! Book your time with me so you can slow down and fine tune.

I promise it will be worth it 🤗

Hi…my name is Kristie and I’m developing a bunion on my right foot.

Here’s what I’m doing to manage it:

✅Leg press at the gym 5/6 days a week. IT’S NOT ABOUT THE WEIGHT…it’s about how I’m resourcing to make the effort to …it’s about what is “helping” that doesn’t need to (my shoulder and rib cage twisting plus an over exertion from TFL) AND its about using the appropriate areas/arches/muscles to follow through with movement. It’s about repatterning my gait cycle.

IT’S WORKING.

✅I’M ROLLING MY FEET OUT. Every day. RAD is my go to. Have to keep arches functioning to get from lateral to transverse to medial and big toe push off.

✅TOE SPREADERS. I’m working on remembering to wear them everyday. I have a lot of empathy for my clients. I get it- it’s tough to remember sometimes to do the little things that will be helpful in the long run…but it’s worth it.

✅And lastly: I’M PRESENT WITH MY MOVEMENT. I want to feel my foot move functionally through all the arches. I want to feel knee extension and hip opening.

This work of Structural Integration is about agency. It’s about taking your power back. Showing UP and tuning IN. It’s about pace and presence.

I’M TAKING MY OWN ADVICE AND DOING MY HOMEWORK

Every morning I go to the gym and stick one leg on the leg press and manage how I hold it…when I feel a successful subtle shift it is then, from there that I begin to press a low amount of weight.

Repatterning:
Slow and consistent repetition.

Why did this happen?
I have many suspicions.
I’ll save them for another post.

I often find ways to express that I’m human too. Life happens, we check in and make adjustments as we go. We reflect on what’s working and what is not…when we can, when appropriate.

I NEVER thought this we be a thing I would have to manage. But I’m hell bent on figuring it out. And I’m here to hold space for the things you’re managing as well.

If you’re seeking Structural Integration (some call it Rolfing) in Bend, OR and you’re ready to take action for the health of your function, structure, and balance…please reach out.

I’m back from 3 weeks vacation filled with rest, celebration, and time with some of my favorite people and my favorite band.
