I am also glad to hear of foot and leg banding, as I have that, too. I recently got a really good massage therapist that does trigger point therapy, and it has really started to get my muscles loosening up. I think that the tightness really exacerbated my problems with my feet, which resulted in open ulcers and infection. If I understand it, Rolfing is extreme, but I don't have the impression that it is precise, like trigger point. I am learning to feel the trigger points myself, so I can work on them between sessions.
