Why try MELT?

We bodyworkers have a tendency to beat up our bodies in order to help a client. Perhaps it is a case of poor body mechanics, too many clients in a row or just trying too hard to get results.

Regardless, self-care is crucial to the career lest it end sooner than it began. One great way to encourage self-care is by incorporating The M.E.L.T. Method (MELT) into your daily routine. Created by manual therapist Sue Hitzmann, MELT is a self-treatment technique that helps eliminate pain and bring balance back to the body through the use of specialized MELT Hand & Foot Balls and a foam roller for full body techniques. It is an adaptation of the manual therapy techniques Sue uses in her private practice, so for all of you therapists who can't seem to find time to receive, here is an alternative.

This coming August 14th and 15th, I will be teaching a 2-day, 4-hour intensive on the MELT Core system. If you are near the Hartford area and can make it, you don't want to miss learning this technique. Your body and your career will thank you for it!
