As the New Year approaches and we consider what to improve and change in our lives…discover M.E.L.T. – an innovative form of exercise that is altering the way people take care of their bodies. This time of year we put pressure on our bodies every moment of the day; whether it’s standing on the subway with shopping bags weighing us down or sitting all day glued to the computer. How do we modify the pressure we put on our bodies and de-stress our over all state of mind? We MELT! Let’s relearn how to respect our bodies and put and end to aches and pains that we learn to tolerate on a daily basis.
M.E.L.T. (Myofascial Energetic Length Technique) is a one-of-a kind method created by manual therapist Sue Hitzman, that is backed by science and approved by thousands of satisfied clients. It uses specially designed rollers and M.E.L.T. hand and foot balls to empower people of all stages of their life to take control of their aging process and reconnect with their bodies. M.E.L.T is extremely beneficial for anyone trying to unwind from being in an office all day, as it reduces aches, pains, overall tension and stress and improves posture, sleep and digestion. In addition, women who have worked the M.E.L.T. method have found a significant decrease in wrinkles and cellulite; an added benefit while striving to obtain an active, healthy and balanced life.
Levine’s workshops, located in the heart of Park Slope, Brooklyn, are aimed to satisfy anyone who wants to slow down the aging process and live a longer, healthier life and for those who already have an exercise regime and want to maintain a fit, toned body. The workshops will provide the perfect introduction to the method, as well as amazing discounts on the props used- a great first step toward being able to use these tools on your own.
Embrace the New Year and the transformation it can bring and give your body and mind the ultimate gift -- A Full Body M.E.L.T. An Introduction to this “Hands off Bodywork” will take place on Tuesday, December 22nd, 6:30pm – 8pm, Tuesday, January 5th, 6:30pm – 8pm and on Thursday, January 7th at 3:45pm – 5:15pm at Conscious Body Studio, 575 5th Street.
In this workshop you will learn 6 simple “do-it-yourself” secrets to feeling better now.
1. Rediscover your ideal alignment
2. Decompress the low back and neck
3. Decompress overworked joints
4. Rehydrate your connective tissue freeing up your joints and muscles
5. Reconnect to your core in a more effective way
6. Learn a hand and foot treatment you can take anywhere to treat the whole body
You’ll come to class feeling, tight, maybe disconnected or even unaware of your body. Your body may feel stiff from sitting all day, or sore from yesterdays killer workout or dance class. Your shoulders might be shrugged up toward your ears (and perhaps they are even as you read this). It feels like a great effort to sit or stand up tall. No matter what draws you in, by the time you leave a MELT class you’ll feel more grounded, long, and lean. You’ll stand with a new kind of ease, without all that unnecessary tension in your neck, shoulders, and back. You’ll feel like you have a little more space in all your joints. And most importantly you’ll start to have a better understanding of how your body tends to get out of balance and how you can fix it yourself.
And this is how your new obsession with MELTing begins. See you on December 22nd!
