Rolf Oberholzer
Certified Rolfer™|Massage Therapist|Pilates Trainer
Guiding my clients individually through their processes and helping them achieve well-being and balance is my overriding aim.

About me
I was born in 1976 in Zurich, Switzerland. I worked as a successful Rolfer™ and Massage Therapist in Zurich and Zug before moving to Japan in 2020 primarily due to family reasons.
I was initially enjoying my career as an employee at a renowned company before health-related themes have become an ever-increasing focus for me, and I became more interested in practicing meditation, yoga, and qigong.
In 2010 I took the bold step of a new professional direction, choosing to begin full-time training as a massage therapist and studying further courses in manual and training therapies. When I experienced Rolfing on myself, I knew Rolfing® Structural Integration is the ingenious method for supporting my clients in the future. After several years of valuable professional experience as a masseur in an interdisciplinary team, I have fulfilled my heart's desire and went through an additional intensive period of study to become a certified Rolfer™. Working as a Rolfer™ is something I find very fulfilling for the senses. Throughout, I was fortunate to meet many clients who had appreciated my work and had given me confidence. It was a big surprise to them when I explained that I would be moving to Japan in 2020. Though this is also an excellent chance for me, I believe it's another progress and challenges in my life to be fulfilled.
If you are interested in experiencing Rolfing, then I would invite you to an initial session, after which you can decide, based on your gut instinct, whether or not you wish to continue with the process. I look forward to meeting you.
Yours,
Rolf Oberholzer, Certified Rolfer™
