It was a pleasure to be Conversation today with Jussi Pellonpää
Jussi is a certified Rolfer, physiotherapist, massage therapist and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner who specializes in looking at how the person’s deeply rooted “attitudes” manifest in all levels of body (-mind) functioning. And in using that understanding to guide interventions aimed at improving the client’s goals with the most precision possible.
In today’s conversation, we explored how Jussi’s path bridges Rolfing®, physiotherapy, and Somatic Experiencing® into a deeply embodied, process-oriented approach to healing. We discussed the pacing of structural integration, the difference between neurophysiological and biological adaptation, and how true change often requires time, space, and surrender. Jussi reflected on the interplay between posture, safety, and pre-movement—the subtle ground where psychological and physiological patterns converge. Together, we examined the challenges of working with high-performing yet dysregulated clients, the ethics of force in bodywork, and the importance of practitioner clarity. Jussi’s work invites us to honor transformation not as something to impose, but as something to meet—slowly, relationally, and with deep respect for the body’s timing.
