about evelyn

Practitioners of SI do not feel ourselves to be therapists. The gravitational field is the therapist. What we do is prepare the body to receive the support from the gravitational field which gives a greater sense of well being.

about evelyn

Rolfing Structural Integration Practitioner Evelyn Genadek

From heavy manual labor in the backcountry to long periods of stillness and deep meditation, I have explored a broad spectrum of ways to live in a human body. At its heart, this has been an exploration of how to be happy. What I’ve learned is that while there are endless ways to live, and so many things our bodies can adapt to, we eventually have to find a middle path. And we find that path by learning to listen.

Receiving my first Rolfing® Ten-Series was a profound initiation into understanding how the body adapts to everything we carry: injury, stress, emotion, repetition, trauma, and daily life. It awakened new levels of physical and emotional awareness. Rolfing allowed me to feel both stronger and more at ease, and it gave me more access to my body’s inner knowing.

We all have such unique structures, stories, and paths. My intention in this work is to stay deeply curious and open-minded, allowing every body I meet to teach me something new. This practice continually reminds me how complex, strange, and magical we are, and I love exploring that with everyone who walks into my practice. This year (2026), after 15 seasons with the U.S. Forest Service, I’m excited to commit full time to my Rolfing practice. My intention is to use this full spectrum of embodiment practices to meet my clients where they are, whether they are seeking pain relief or deeper emotional and energetic balance.
