Difference between MELT Restore and MELT Performance

The MELT Method is a revolutionary self-care system designed to help you improve performance, and eliminate stress that accumulates from daily living, before it causes pain and dysfunction.

Using soft rollers and balls, MELT techniques help boost the body’s natural healing mechanisms with self-myofascial restorative techniques that simulate hands-on therapeutic practices.

This Hands-Off Bodywork® is a simple, daily self-care practice anyone, at any age or activity level, can use to effectively improve their sense of wellbeing and live a more active, healthy, pain-free life.

MELT Restore rejuvenates the supportive qualities of your connective tissue system, by eliminating accumulated tension and stress that alters the resilience of this tissue, causing compensation, imbalances, and a decline in your overall performance and function. The protocol for MELT Restore uses the "4Rs" - Reconnect, Rebalance, Rehydrate, and Release. These techniques give you the ability to reconnect to your body's center of gravity, re-balance the regulators of your nervous system, rehydrate your fascia, and release unnecessary compression in your neck and low back. 

MELT Performance adds a competitive advantage for anyone who trains to perform at optimal levels and an insurance policy for anyone who wants to sustain a pain-free, active lifestyle. The advanced NeuroStrength techniques of MELT Performance takes MELT Restore protocols up a notch by adding the next 2Rs of the method: Reintegrate and Repattern. These sensorimotor techniques address musculoskeletal imbalances and reduce compensatory patterns that alter joint stability and mobility. Adding MELT Performance to your fitness routine will improve your muscle timing, stability, agility, and control, and reduce your risk of repetitive stress injuries. 

Think of MELT Performance as prehab so you don't have to rehab!
