M.E.L.T. Method

M.E.L.T. Method – The Art of Self Care

The MELT Method is a breakthrough, self-treatment system that restores the supportiveness of the body’s connective tissue.  It will help combat chronic pain, improve athletic performance, and decrease the stress that accumulates in the body from repetitive postures of everyday living. MELT simulates the hands-on techniques that manual therapists Sue Hitzmann (creator of MELT) and Hilary Bilkis use, to eliminate stress, pain, and dysfunction in their private, hands-on body work clients.

Through a series of easy, precise techniques—using simple, specialized equipment, like soft foam rollers and small balls—this groundbreaking program quickly rehydrates connective tissue, making it more supportive. This encourages the body to release long-held tension that frequently leads to chronic pain symptoms. MELT also helps decrease accumulated stress in the nervous system, helping improve any person’s overall  feelings of wellness.

MELT treats connective tissue, which surrounds every joint, muscle, nerve, bone, and organ. New scientific research has revealed that the missing link to pain-free living, is a balanced nervous system and healthy, well hydrated connective tissue.  MELT rejuvenates tissue hydration and relieves the tension of day to day life that gets trapped in our bodies.   MELT is easy to learn and is changing the way people care for their bodies.

As a trained MELT instructor, I am offering classes or private sessions to teach you the MELT Hand & Foot treatment and MELT full body foam roller classes.  MELT helps you to reconnect to your body, quiet your nervous system,  relieve foot pain, back pain, hip pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and hand pain – to name just a few. It will improve  your flexibility, posture, range of motion and boost the results and effectiveness of your exercise routine. MELT improves your overall feelings of WELLNESS.
