Rolfing® with Kat
At the start of each appointment I will check with you about how you're feeling and the reason(s) you booked your Rolfing® session. Based on your goals, I will work with you to assess relevant pain triggers, movement patterns, joint and muscular function, and adaptability before moving on to treatment. Treatment (i.e. table work) typically lasts for 60-70 minutes and includes a combination of hands-on manipulation paired with client-generated movement to improve both structure and function. Sessions end with a closing assessment to evaluate any changes and discuss options for movement practice and / or future treatment plans. For many people, the changes felt during a session are instant. For others, the work percolates over the course of a few days.
Rolfing® Session Info
Session Duration
Rolfing® sessions are 75-minute bookings. Ahead of your first session, I will send an intake form (please be sure to to be complete it ahead of the session), as well as an email with directions to the clinic, reminders about attire and the current masking policy. Assuming that you arrive on time and that your intake form is complete, time on the table is typically 60-70 minutes of the 75-minute session.
Session Pricing & Payment
Rolfing® sessions cost $185. I offer a $10 discount for cash payments. Payment is due at the time of service. I am able to accept payment via credit card, Venmo, checks, and cash.
Due to the costly realities of navigating insurance panels and reimbursement, I am not in network with any insurance providers, and I do not accept insurance at this time. Rolfing® sessions may be covered by extended healthcare plans or healthcare spending accounts, but it is your responsibility to confirm coverage and to ask me for relevant documentation to submit for reimbursement after paying for your treatment.
As a fee-for-service provider that does not interact with the insurance system, I understand out of network insurance complexities, and I offer a limited number of sliding scale sessions per month for folks experiencing income inequity or a period of hardship. If this is you, please contact me directly to discuss availability for a sliding scale session.

What to wear
Rolfing® requires clients to wear appropriate apparel so that the practitioner can access bare skin, perform assessments, and ask the client for movement at regular intervals throughout the session. For most, "appropriate attire" looks like loose shorts and a tank top or sports bra. Clients are welcome to de-layer to their undergarments if they'd prefer. The idea is to have all sensitive areas comfortably covered, with as much access to bare skin as possible - especially around the area of focus. A sheet will be available if needed for temperature and nervous system regulation.
Please reach out if you have questions about what to wear. My highest priority is your comfort.
How to Cancel a Session
You may cancel your appointment by clicking the link to cancel in your confirmation or reminder emails, or by contacting Kat directly (kat@katkocurek.com).
Please know that your appointment time is reserved just for you. Appointments cancelled or changed within 24 hours and missed appointments incur a $92.50 fee (50% of the cost of your service) due at the following session. I understand that life happens and make exceptions on a case-by-case basis. If you are running late for your appointment I will use the remaining time available for treatment, but your full $185 fee will still apply.
COVID-19 Policy
My current COVID-19 policy allows clients the option to receive treatment with or without a mask on. My current masking practice is to greet clients unmasked, and to put on a mask when treatment time on the table begins. If you would feel more comfortable with me being masked for the entire duration of the session, please ask! I am happy to oblige. The clinic space is furnished with two air purifiers that employ HEPA and UV-C technology to reduce airborne bacteria and viruses. I sanitize the workspace between client sessions.
I ask that you do not come to the clinic if you have had a known COVID exposure in the last 5 days, or if you are experiencing COVID, cold, or flu-like symptoms. If you develop any symptoms ahead of your appointment or have had a known COVID exposure, please reschedule for a later date. The clinic is a safe space for our community to receive treatment, please act responsibly and do not come to the clinic if you may bring a virus with you. I promise to do the same.
