Putting advertising on social network websites like Facebook or News Corp (NWS) MySpace has never made sense. They claim to have tens of millions of , , . Some of those people are doing dark and deeply disturbing things online. Others are looking for a date or communicating with other agoraphobics.
The whole idea of building a social network is a bit of a fraud. The sites actually new friends for you, people like Jim Cramer and the recently deceased pin-up girl turned crazy old woman Betty Page. For a lot of the visitors who have no friends, it may actually be a useful service.
Typical Facebook user posts pictures of themselves in their underwear, their kids, their pets--especially exotic birds. The site has become a rabbit warren of the perverse, the sociopaths, and the lonely--all people who would rather communicate in a semi-anonymous online world instead of face-to-face.

A recent client interested in Rolfing recently asked me this question.  And its a valid question, as Rolfing does generally cost more than a normal massage (at least as long as you arent going to a d end up paying more than for a Rolfing session).
Well, several answers come to mind.  One primary difference is that Rolfing isnt really massage, and shouldnt be equated as such.  Massage therapy schools require their students to train in multiple modalitiesSwedish, deep tissue, spa-like treatments (hot stones, salt scrubs, etc).  This results in a practitioner who has some skill at a lot of different things.  As they go into practice, they may specialize in something or take classes for even more styles.
Rolfers, on the other hand, spend their ENTIRE training learning only Rolfing.  So we come out of school being really good at one thing.  And, such specialization/depth-of-training and skill level demands a premium.
Many types of massage are geared only toward relaxation.  This is a worthwhile goal in and of itself, but it doesnt get to the root of body issues or help you to learn new patterns.  Other types of massage are designed with more of a therapeutic mindset, but they tend to miss the mark.  Rolfing is not meant for relaxation, even though many people find it relaxing.  It is meant to transform your body and evolve your structure.  And its unique holistic approach sets it apart from anything learned in massage schools or naturopathic colleges.  Make no mistake about itRolfing changes your body and the mind-body connection.
And duration of the effects is probably the biggest reason why Rolfing costs more than a normal massage.  Most people, even though who love massage, admit that the relaxation or muscle relaxation usually only lasts for a couple of hours or days.  In this regard, the massage acted more like an aspirin to dull a headache.  Sometime the headache goes away on its own, and sometime you need more aspirin.
The effects of Rolfing are felt for hours, days, week, months, and even years later.  People who dont get additional work after a 10-Series can be viewed much later, and their body will have continued to improve over time.  Rolfing isnt an aspirin for the headache, its helping to resolve the headache so no aspirin is needed.
Massage can be effective, especially if the body issue is recent or temporary (like a pulled muscle).  But for deep, chronic, systemic, non-local body issues, Rolfing is the way to go.  You often would need to constantly go to a massage over and over as the effects wear off and the issue returns.  This would be penny-wise and dollar-foolish.
Im not going to say that Rolfing is cheap, but it is cost-effective and its an investment in your self.  You wont be disappointed in the return on your investment.
