Shifting the Lower Legs

 

Great example in this before and after from a single session showing significant shift in my client. His left lower leg rotates medially, and his foot moves more toward a parallel position. His gastrocnemius moves to the back of his leg where it belongs. His right leg moves in and is more supportive of his pelvis. It’s always interesting of how working the lower body effects the upper body and, in this case, creates lift in the torso and allows more length in his sides from the hip crest to the axilla creating a taller structure in an already tall individual. The basis of support starts at your feet, and one can’t overstate this concept as it is built into the Rolfing paradigm.
