I usually incorporate some SourcePoint into my Rolfing sessions as it allows me to formulate a course of action that respects what the body has to share about its own healing.
Please visit <sourcepointtherapy.com> for more detailed information.
Here is a partial list of interventions:
• Revitalize the body’s guardian energies
• Strengthen the connection to the universal blueprint of health
• Work with sacred geometry to support health
• Revitalize the chakras (energy centers)
• Seal any places in the body that may be leaking vital energy
• Clear the body of disruptive foreign energies
Using SourcePoint Therapy® from a distance can be surprisingly effective and is something I do when clients can not see me in person.
When receiving a distance session, please plan to sit or lay down comfortably for the duration of the 60-minute block we will schedule. I’ll send you a text a few minutes before we start and another at the session’s completion. Then, later in the day, I’ll e-mail you a brief overview of how the session unfolded and include any information I think you may find interesting.
I do these sessions from my office and imagine or visualize you on my treatment table. I’ll then give you the session in a similar way to how I would if we were working in person. These sessions can be surprisingly effective. When receiving the work, some people feel tingling in their body, heat, cold, become very relaxed, or fall asleep. Or something unique and personal may arise for the person.
Distance sessions last between 45 and 60 minutes and cost $100.
Please contact me for more information and to schedule.

This class is open to everyone.
You do not have to be a Rolfer or have a healing modality to attend.
SourcePoint Therapy® is a simple non-invasive method of energy work, originated by Bob Schrei, Advanced Certified Rolfer of 40 years, and his partner, Donna Thomson. Its intention is to strengthen our connection to the universal Blueprint of health for the human being, that information of health inherent in the universal energy field. SourcePoint supports whatever modality you are using as a practitioner and can be easily and effectively incorporated into a Rolfing session. It is also useful as a method for self-practice.
In Module One, we briefly explore the ancient history of the Blueprint of health. You then learn to work with points in the human energy field that strengthen an individual’s connection to the Blueprint. You will also learn a scanning technique that reveals where a person’s body is blocked from this information and how to bring the information of health to the blockages you find.
During class practicums, students pair up and work fully clothed on bodywork tables, working both hands-off and hands-on the physical body. Class discussion includes how SourcePoint can be used to support and enhance a Rolfing session.
The material of Module One can be immediately incorporated into your practice. For those who want more, the training continues with Module Two and Three.

Instructor Bio
Dave Sheldon is an Advanced Rolfer™ who has been practicing in Boulder and Longmont, Colorado for the last twenty years. He has been studying SourcePoint Therapy for eighteen years and teaching for six. In addition, Dave studied craniosacral therapy with the Pacific School of Biodynamic Integration, and in his early Rolfing days, assisted numerous Phase One & Two classes at the Dr. Ida Rolf Institute. Dave has always been interested in how the intelligent forces of health interact with living beings on this planet. SourcePoint has given him a tangible language with which to dialogue with this intelligence and he is delighted to share the work with others.
KB Imle is a shamanic practitioner and intuitive healer with a background in both Rolfing Structural Integration and SourcePoint Therapy. Having spent many years as a Rolfing and SourcePoint practitioner, she now dovetails both into her shamanic and intuitive practice. Working in this way, she is able to walk between the worlds of energy and physicality to help bring balance to a client’s emotional, spiritual, and physical being. KB will be the assistant instructor for the class.
How I incorporate SourcePoint into my Rolfing sessions
My journey with SourcePoint Therapy started in 2006, less than two years after completing the basic Rolfing training. Having always been interested in esoteric phenomena, and after having experiences in Rolfing school that were outside the conversation of the standard curriculum, SourcePoint allowed me to begin to establish a relationship with the intelligent forces of health I sensed in the classroom, and later in my private practice. Learning how to blend two transformative healing modalities learned in succession into a private practice was not without its challenges, and I am happy to share these experiences.
A typical session in my practice looks very similar to a standard Rolfing session. It begins with a client intake followed by diagnostics like walking, knee bends, spine and neck range of motion tests. Once the client is comfortable on the table, I use a little SourcePoint. I acknowledge four points in the client’s field that strengthens their connection with the Blueprint of health, the intelligent information that gives rise to life and supports health. I feel that strengthening this relationship at the start of a Rolfing session makes the session more effective and last longer.
Next, I scan the person with my hand to determine the most appropriate place to begin. I find that contacting this place on their physical body with my hands allows their system to recognize me as a practitioner and to then settle into the session. It also assures the client’s system I will be listening to what they have to tell me, that this will not be an ego or protocol-based session.
A second scan follows, one to find the primary place in the client’s physical body that is disconnected or blocked from the Blueprint of health. This blockage may be in the same place as where a client is experiencing pain or recovering from an injury or surgery. Other times, the blockage may be in a seemingly unrelated location and thus mirrors Ida Rolf’s quote of “work where it’s not”. I find that working to remove the blockage, and other blockages the client may have, within the context of a Rolfing session, by using Rolfing techniques, can be extremely effective at helping to meet the client’s goals. Working with these blocks also allows me to be selective about where I work, which makes my treatments more efficient.
Beginning with SourcePoint in this way takes about 5 minutes. I’ll then compare the results of these energetic diagnostics with those from the biomechanical / movement assessment and begin to formulate a treatment plan while always keeping the client’s goals in mind.
Finding and acknowledging the four points in the client’s field and performing the entry point and primary blockage scan, along with other valuable skills, are taught in Module One. Also, keep in mind that SourcePoint was developed to support other modalities, not replace them, and everything taught in the SourcePoint classes was tested out by long time Advanced Rolfer, and co-creator of SourcePoint, Bob Schrei.
