SOFT TISSUE SERVICES

In the same way that your home's structural integrity depends on the strength of your foundation, your body's postural integrity depends on the strength and alignment of your feet (then knees, hips, etc).

MASSAGE THERAPY

WHAT IS STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION?

Picture
Structural Integration is a type of hands-on therapy that deals with the fascia that covers and connects every muscle, bone, nerve, artery, vein and all of our internal organs. Trauma to the body, poor posture or repetitive stress from performing the same movement has a cumulative effect on the body and can create restrictions and tension in the fascia. Rolfing works to address these lines of tension so that your whole body functions more efficiently and in a pain-free manner. 

No matter what sport or activity you’re doing, if you’re trying to build and perfect your technique with a flawed range of motion, you can only get so far.  You don’t want the movement to be dictated by your limited mobility, rather, you want to make the movement look and feel precise because you have a surplus range of motion and you choose where the movement ends through your strength, stability and good technique. Good mobility plays a huge role in recovery and injury prevention as well.
​

You can do hours of mobility on your own and get good results... but the question is, will you? My clients range from weekend warriors to elite athletes and despite a committed level of mobility, there’s nothing like adding light years to your mobility through the work of expert hands.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION AND MASSAGE?

Massage therapy consists primarily of hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body, specifically, the muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints for the purpose of optimizing health.Massage therapy treatment has a therapeutic effect on the body and optimizes health and well-being by acting on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. Physical function can be developed, maintained and improved; and physical dysfunction and pain and the effects of stress can be relieved or prevented through the use of Massage Therapy.
​

Modern massage techniques can be traced back to the 1700s and the development of Swedish massage, the first systematic method of therapeutic massage based on physiology. Today’s Massage Therapists use their knowledge of anatomy and physiology to combine traditional Swedish and modern Massage Therapy techniques with exercise and other therapies to treat their clients.

About Livia

Livia Pellerin, RMT

Hi, I’m Livia, Registered Massage Therapist, Rolf Structural Integration Practitioner, and the founder of Mobility Junkie and my mission is to help high performance athletes keep their bodies in peak condition, so they can push their limits and stay injury free.

I danced professionally for over 15 years, pushed my body to its breaking point daily and was often dependent on bodywork to keep myself going. I tried many therapies that helped but nothing made as profound or lasting change as the Rolf Method of Structural Integration. The results I experienced were so profound that I made a bold decision to become a Rolf Structural Integration Practitioner in 2013. Soon after, I got a position in a CrossFit Gym and I now have been working with hundreds of high performance athletes. Many of them are desk bound for most of the day and suffer from pain and decreased mobility due to poor work posture and prolonged sitting. Compound this with complex movements and heavy weight and you have a recipe for disaster. Being a CrossFitter myself, I understand the effects of training on the body and have developed an individual approach to correcting imbalances to optimize function and performance.

I’ve had the privilege of treating athletes at the 2016 and 2017 East Regionals in Albany, NY and look forward to contributing to their performance at higher levels year after year with more tools and knowledge to support them. Becoming an RMT in a addition to a Rolf Structural Integration practitioner has allowed me to help many more athletes in addition to offering more options to my clients.

My 6-week mobility workshop for CrossFit athletes sold out so be sure to look for upcoming program dates. I strongly believe that it’s never too late to be happy, healthy and mobile regardless of your age or activity level.
 

I look forward to meeting you and helping you to gain the health and mobility that your life demands.
