About this episode
Incorporating the latest science, the Melt Method is based on 3 hands-on bodywork therapies including structural integration, ie fascial work, craniosacral therapy and neuromuscular therapy. MELT has been adapted as a hands-off self-care treatment so people can get themselves out of pain, improve their mobility and flexibility.
Originating from the US, MELT uses specifically designed soft foam rollers, soft balls and bands, MELT helps the body to release tension, regulating the nervous system and restoring the supportive qualities of the fascial tissue.
Seed's MELT practitioner, Sarah-Jane Goulding, first discovered this modality when suffering with 4 pro-lapsed discs.
Said Sarah, "I loved the fact that I could use this system to get myself out of pain without having to see a health practitioner every week. I call it an enabler so people can use this alongside everything they would do in their daily life, eg you may have some sitting at a desk all day or someone practicing their golf swing.
"These repetitive movements cause dehydrated tissue that lives all the way through the whole body around every muscle, tendon and joint. If our tissue is dehydrated and tight, our movement is restricted and compensation patterns then kick in and present as aches and pains in the body. MELT helps us to alleviate those patterns. Once you learn the technique and movements, you can treat yourself whenever you need."
MELT is suitable for everyone of all ages and is available in group classes or as a 1:1 session either in person or online. MELT is great for rehabilitation, prevention, maintenance and longevity, boosting both physical health and mental wellbeing.
