What to wear
Most clients receive work in their underwear. Briefs are preferable to boxers for men; traditional panties and bra work well for women. If you're not comfortable with this stage of undress, other options are available. A pair of loose-fitting, short, cotton gym shorts, or yoga-type stretchy shorts, are good options.

We can work with a variety of clothing, just keep the following in mind:

• You must be comfortable. Unlike massage, Rolfing requires you to get up from the table and walk around periodically.

• Clothing should not pinch or bind. If you can lie on the table and pull one knee to your chest without resistance, you’re in good shape.

• Clothing should allow us to view and work around your upper legs, mid-back, and neck. Leave the hip-hop shorts at home. Sports bras are difficult to navigate around the mid-back.

• Avoid heavy lycra. Bicycle shorts, girdles, and other garments containing lycra are nearly impossible to work through.

It’s also a good idea to bring some work-out clothes (shorts and a tee-shirt) if we want to incorporate stretches using yoga mats, balance balls, or other training equipment.
