Read The Story Of How I
Became a Rolfing® Practitioner
Carole
LaRochelle has been practicing manual therapy since 1992, achieving her
Rolfing® Certification in 1996, Advanced Certification in 2000, and
Movement Certification in 2002. Rolfing practitioners are trained and
certified only by The
Rolf Institute® headquartered in
Boulder, Colorado.
Since
becoming a Certified Rolfer, Carole has continued to follow her
passions in pursuing her development as a practitioner. In 2009 she
completed the ITT Pilates Mat Trainer
certification culminating her 20 year involvement in this body of work.
Her interests
have also drawn her to study craniosacral
therapy, traditional
healing with Curandera Elena Avila,
as well as many Rolfing manipulation classes with topics ranging from
working with scoliosis, to whiplash, to working with repetitive motion
injuries.
Most recently Carole has
pursued training in Bodynamic Analysis,
a form of body-oriented psychotherapy. She has studied their character
structure model as well as their approach to working with
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. She continues to study Resource
Oriented Skill Training with Merete Holm Brantbjerg, one of
Bodynamic's co-creators. Carole has also enjoyed teaching Practice
Building and assisting Rolf Institute trainings.
In addition to her Rolf
Institute membership, in 2009 Carole earned the designation Board Certified
Structural IntegratorCM
by passing the Certification
Exam for Structural Integration℠. Carole is also Nationally
Certified in
Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork, a member of the International
Association of Structural Integrators, and a Professional
Member of the American Massage Therapy Association.
She has more than twenty years experience in a wide variety of movement
and dance techniques. In addition to her somatic training and
experience Carole is a 1990 graduate of Sonoma
State University's School of Business and Economics.
Outside of work Carole
enjoys dance, gardening, hiking, yoga, and traveling for both work and
pleasure.
