Dr. Ida Paulina Rolf - Photo courtesy of Certified Advanced Rolfer® David Kirk-Campbell Rolfing® is a massage therapy developed by Dr. Ida Paulina Rolf between 1945 and 1979. Ida Rolf was an American woman born just a few years prior to 1900 and she was the first woman to get a PhD in Biochemistry. Needless to say that she was very determined to push her way through a world that was very much dominated by men and starting from her knowledge of Biochemistry, her curiosity on disciplines like Osteopathy and Homoeopathy as well as Tantra Yoga, she developed a revolutionary method known as Structural Integration (or Rolfing®), a technique based on the manipulation of fascia (aka connective tissue).
