ロルフィングを推奨している方々→ English
「ロルフィングはあなた自身の身体をよく知るのにとても素晴らしい方法で、良くない姿勢のため長時間立っているのが辛いとか、慢性的な痛み（腰痛など）の症状に変化をもたらします。また日常のストレスや習慣的に抜けきれない筋肉の緊張も解放してくれることでしょう。」
-Andrew Weil, M.D. （アンドリュー・ワイル医学博士）
アメリカの統合医学研究者、医学博士。東洋医学の伝統も取り入れつつ、精神＆身体の療法に働きかけ、本来の自然治癒力を引き出すヘルスケア・システムの提唱者として世界に知られている。
"When pianist Leon Fleisher lost the use of his right hand in 1965, he began a decades-long struggle to find a cure for his mysterious ailment while reshaping his career to accommodate his loss...In the late seventies and early eighties, Fleisher dove headfirst into the prospect of recovering his right hand, with a series of unsuccessful therapies that included biofeedback, acupuncture, and surgery; he fully succeeded by the late nineties, with an unusual therapy system called "Rolfing®"
-New York Times

[以下、Wikipediaより抜粋]
パールズが作ったゲシュタルト療法の思想を盛り込んだ詩で、彼はワークショップでこの詩を読み上げることを好んだ。
私は私のために生き、あなたはあなたのために生きる。
私はあなたの期待に応えて行動するためにこの世に在るのではない。
そしてあなたも、私の期待に応えて行動するためにこの世に在るのではない。
もしも縁があって、私たちが出会えたのならそれは素晴らしいこと。
出会えなくても、それもまた素晴らしいこと。
