The Melt Method

MELT stands for Myofascial Energetic Length Technique, a simple yet powerful self-care technique using specially designed therapy balls - large and soft, small and firm - to:

- Rehydrate your fascia (your body's connective tissue)
- Release tension, and discomfort around compressed joints
- Calm your nervous system to help you feel more relaxed
- Release 'stuck stress' in your body - the kind of stress that builds up over time, leading to tension, stiffness, or pain.

Fascia is your body's internal support system. It wraps around your muscles, bones, and organs, giving you strength, structure, and the ability to move smoothly. But daily life - whether it's sitting for long hours, repetitive movements, or dealing with stress - can dehydrate and stress your fascia. Think of it like a flowing river that becomes clogged with sediment. This "sediment," or stuck stress, often shows up as stiffness or pain in areas like your neck, shoulders, or lower back.

That's where MELT works it's magic. By gently working on your fascia, MELT clears out that "sediment," restores flow, and helps your body feel freer, lighter, and more mobile. It gives your fascia the care it needs to function at its best.

And here's the best part - MELT isn't just for people with aches or pains. It's for everyone. Even if you feel "fine" the stresses of daily life (think constant noise, light, long hours at a desk, repetitive movement, endless screen time) can take it's toll. MELT can help you feel more grounded, flexible, balanced, and energised.

What MELT can do for you

- Release "stuck stress" that's hiding in your body
- Ease stiffness, especially in areas like your lower back
- Improve your flexibility, posture, and overall awareness of your body
- Help you feel lighter, more balanced, and at ease
- Reduce chronic pain and tension

In Pilates classes, we incorporate MELT techniques to release accumulated stress and improve flexibility, alignment, posture, and joint mobility.
