About this guest -

Sarah-Jane Goulding is a highly skilled MELT Method Instructor and Advanced Clinical Massage Therapist with over 30 years of hands-on experience in the healing arts. Based in Holmer Green, she works with individuals of all ages and abilities to reduce pain, improve movement, and restore balance through her signature blend of bodywork and fascia-based therapy.

Sarah-Jane began her career in massage therapy with an intuitive understanding that healing touch could truly transform lives. After gaining her Advanced Clinical and Sports Massage qualification (the highest level of massage certification in the UK), she built a thriving practice in an osteopathy clinic, helping countless clients recover from chronic pain and injury.

Her own life took a turn when she suffered four prolapsed discs, a debilitating injury that left her in daily pain. It was during her own search for healing that she discovered the MELT Method, developed by Sue Hitzmann. MELT proved to be a cornerstone of her recovery, and it inspired her to train and become a certified MELT Instructor across all four levels.

Today, Sarah-Jane blends her deep knowledge of fascia, postural alignment, clinical massage, and MELT techniques to offer 1-to-1 sessions and small-group classes. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or simply looking to move and feel better, Sarah-Jane brings empathy, expertise, and a deep commitment to your wellbeing.

"MELT changed my life, and now I get to help others change theirs. There’s nothing else out there quite like it."

Sarah-Jane will be one of the practitioners at the Summer retreat, there are 3 spots still up for grabs, details below.

We talk about how pain, whether physical or emotional, often becomes the catalyst for transformation. I share my own experiences with pain and how it changed me, helping me understand that real wealth isn’t found in money but in health, love, and meaningful connection.

Sarah-Jane introduces us to the MELT Method, a powerful self-care approach that targets fascia and helps the body move with more freedom and less pain. We dive into the mind-body connection, the impact of trauma on physical wellbeing, and how fascia often stores stories that the conscious mind hasn’t yet processed.

We also talk about the healing power of sound: frequency, vibration, and how something as simple as a sound bath can help restore balance to the nervous system. It’s about reclaiming sovereignty over our bodies and wellbeing, and reminding ourselves that we always ha
