About Me
Christoph Sommer, (HP- Germany) completed his basic manual education at the Rolf Institute of Structural Integration. He is Rolfing®- Instructor for the Rolf Institute, Boulder, CO and the European Rolfing® Association e.V. . Since 1986 he works in private practice in Munich in the field of the manual treatment of the human structure.
Peter Schwind, developer of the “Fascia and membrane technique” and Advanced Rolfing® Instructor has been a teacher and mentor for over 25 years and has had ongoing influence in the evolution of his work.
On his path of developing skills and expertise in the field, he trained in Cranio –Sacral- Therapy at the Upledger Institute, with various Rolfing® instructors, he studied with Peter Levine ( Somatic Experiencing ), Ron Kurtz (founder of the Hakomi-Method of body-centered psychotherapy) and Hubert Godard, (Rolfing Movement Instructor and former dean of the University Paris IV) amongst other modalities.
Starting his studies of Visceral Manipulation with Jean Pierre Barral (D.O.) in 1989 in Germany, he has followed the evolution of Barral’s work through the last 25 years. The general attitude of this work, respecting the organism, being specific with educated and the “listening” hands, as well as treating with minimal force have proven to be the most effective attitude in creating reliable and lasting results in daily practice.
Together with Jean-Pierre Barral and Peter Schwind, he is the Co–Founder of the “MUNICH GROUP for interdisciplinary manual treatment modalities” and is teaching all levels of Barral’s work including the original work of “Visceral and Neural Manipulation” with the Barral Institute, the Munich Group GbR as well as post-graduate classes in osteopathy schools in Europe since 2001.Professional Associations / Memberships
