What Is the MELT Method?
MELT, or myofascial energetic length technique, offers natural pain relief based on neuro-fascial science. The MELT method is a combination of meditation, breathwork and self-myofascial release (SMR) techniques to relieve pain. Myofascial release is a gentle hands-on therapy involving stretching and massage.
Benefits of the MELT Method
The MELT method has helped many individuals to restore their mobility and stability. The technique is beneficial for various reasons:
- Restoration: MELT restores your body’s supportive connective tissue, addressing pain and imbalance.
- Self-care: The technique is an at-home and self-care practice, meaning you can be your own bodyworker. You can relieve your pain no matter where you are at any time of day.
- Natural: MELT uses memory foam rollers, breathing and your own body to naturally heal pain.
- Gentle: This method isn’t abrasive. It is gentle while remaining effective, making it a pleasant practice.
How Does the MELT Method Help With Healing?
The MELT method deals with dehydrated fascia. Fascia is your body’s supportive connective tissue. Fascia holds your bones, muscles, organs, nerve fibers and blood vessels in place. The dehydration of this supporting tissue leads to pain in the back, head, neck, joints and tendons. MELT flushes your system with fluids, helping restore your fascia’s supportive functionality and flexible nature.
MELT combines self-myofascial release with breathwork and meditation to help with healing. The healing protocol involves:
- Reconnecting: You rest-assess your body to determine what area needs your focus. Lie on your back, relaxed, with your palms up.
- Rebalancing: The technique relies on your diaphragm to reset your body’s autopilot. Mindful breathing lowers your stress response.
- Rehydrating: The next step is revitalizing and rehydrating your tissue using mild lengthening and compression techniques. The movement allows fluid to flow throughout your body.
- Releasing: Your focus shifts to easing joint compression and increasing your range of motion. The release helps address the tension at the root of chronic pain and inflammation.
