THE RolfBench™

The RolfBench™

by Wells and Pete

Beautiful, custom, handcrafted height-adjustable oak benches for Rolfing® and Structural Integration bodywork in the seated position.

I ended up making a few Rolfing benches with my good friend Pete Hoffman, because I simply couldn’t find any to buy. They came out so beautifully, we’ve decided to make these available (with pride) via the web. We have two models: the very professional “Classic” and the very economical “Basic.”




The RolfBench™ Classic

Handcrafted to last a lifetime. Built from one inch quartersawn* white oak, the crossbar features “through” tenon** construction. The four-layer lacquer finishing process produces a deep and lustrous finish that displays the innate glow of the natural wood to its best advantage. Available in Dark Walnut, Cherry, or Natural finishes. $425 US.

* “quartersawn” is a method of sawing oak so that the cut is made parallel to the wood’s medullary rays instead of across. This special cut yields a limited quantity of top grade boards featuring ray flake, the decorative wavy pattern prominent in quartersawn wood.

** “tenon” construction entails boards whose ends have been cut for insertion into a mortise. A blind tenon is concealed within the mortise. A through tenon projects beyond the depth of the mortise.



The RolfBench™ Basic

For the budget minded. Handcrafted from three quarter inch regular red oak, the crossbar is secured by 4 removable bolts. Light, highly portable, it ships flat.
Finished with two-layer lacquer. Available in Natural finish only. $275 US.
