Let's review and dive into a deeper look at MELT Technique: Position Point Pressing 👣
By using direct pressure with MELT balls on these specific points you are able to mobilize the many joints in your feet and rejuvenate them with essential fluid!
This will increase the ease of mobility of these joints AND improve neural connections between extremities and every other system in the body by stimulating nerves and mechanoreceptors.
The KEY to position point pressing is maintaining TOLERABLE pressure at each point for 1 or 2 focused breaths. Remember- ONE consistent, compressive force is all it takes to induce a positive change, don't repeat each position point multiple times.
🔵Position Point 1- affects the dome and arch-like structures of the body and stimulates the diaphragm and liver. (All lines and specifically the Rooted Core)
🔵Position Point 2- directly affects the skull, eyes, ears, neck, and jaw. (Back Line)
🔵Position Point 3a- relates tot he solar plexus and middle torso; the thoracic spine, pancreas, duodenum, and stomach, as well as the inner arch of the foot. (Spiral Line and Rooted Core)
🔵Position Point 3b- directly affects the cervical vertebrae. If this point is very tender, it is because Flexor Hallucis Longus is restricted. When the tendon of this muscle is overly taut, a bunion can arise as the tendon slips out of the sesamoid bones. (Spiral Line)
🔵Position Point 4- relates to the arms, shoulders, liver, spleen, and gallbladder. (Lateral Line)
🔵Position Point 5- relates to the lumbar spine, pelvis, kidneys, intestine, and bladder. The lower body organs are stimulated by this point. (All lines, specifically the Back and Spiral Lines)
*dome and arch-like structures= the arches of your feet, the curvature of the ankle mortise, knee, and hip sockets. Inverted dome at the base of the pelvis, the diaphragm, the dome of the lungs, the roof of the mouth, the orbits of the eyes and the crown of the skull.*
🔵So grab your MELT ball and get some whole body benefits!
Happy MELTing!
