I am SOOOOOO excited to introduce all my friends, family, students+ to the MELT Method®…wait, did I say that already??

Erase pain and tension in your hands, feet, neck, and low back brought on by everyday stress, overuse, and age. This simple self-treatment can make your whole body feel better and provide relief from neck and low back pain, arthritis, bunions, plantar fasciitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. Join me for NEW intro & 4-part series classes in the MELT Hand & Foot Treatment. Learn how the connective tissue in your hands and feet gets dehydrated, the common aches and pains it can cause, and how to rehydrate this essential system in our bodies for vibrant health and pain-free movement.
The MELT Method® is an innovative self-treatment program that’s being taught nationwide! Learn more about it at meltmethod.com & sign up for the classes!
