Lower Body Hydration and Stability

Friday

Upper Body Tension and Stress Relief

These classes welcome students of all ages and abilities. Both classes will focus on gentle moves to enhance fluid flow in the fascial matrix. This can be felt throughout the body, not just in the area being massaged. We'll work with a soft ball and soft roller. We can provide prenatal and postnatal students with appropriate adaptations.

All props will be supplied. In studio only. Limit 10 students.

Wednesday, Nov 26 

Lower body, focus on feet, legs, pelvis for greater ease and stability

Friday Nov 28

Upper body, focus on hands and arms, upper back, neck and shoulders to release tension and stress.

We will use ideas and practices from the MELT Method. 

Lori Smith is a nurse who is dedicated to feet, alignment and movement, and teaches the MELT Method for fascia self-massage.

The MELT Method is a self-treatment technique using soft balls and a foam roller.  MELT moves are designed to rehydrate connective tissue and repattern the nervous system. It is a proactive approach to maintaining a healthy, pain-free body that can enhance athletic performance, ease chronic pain, and improve overall well-being.  And it feels really good!

The creator of the MELT method, Sue Hitzmann, designed a number of props that allow individuals to become their own bodyworkers. A soft foam roller and soft rubber ball are the basic tools.
