Lukas grew up in Jersey teaching swim lessons. During that time he fell in love with biomechanics and teaching people how to move fluidly, in fluid. When he moved to North Carolina he began teaching pool aerobics as a way to further that aim. Later on he began training Muay Thai, learning more about the connection between mind and body as a means to express himself. Eventually hard training led to back and neck injuries that were devastating. That's when a Massage Therapist changed his life. After his first session he felt completely new. The next day he decided he wanted to be a Massage Therapist to help people reclaim agency over their bodies. His goal is to provide the best treatment possible to people so they can do the things they love in life, pain free.

Shine On Show Up!
What is a Shine On Show Up you ask?? A Shine On Show Up is where Shine On literally shows up to a school, fire station or hospital and gives complementary massages to the staff! Today was our very first Show Up and we could not be happier. Seeing the look on the teachers faces when they got off the massage chairs made it all worth it. If you know a teacher or a nurse or a fire fighter then please go give them a big hug and thank them for everything they do.
The way we see it is, these are all of the people who we count on to mold our youth and protect us and keep us alive and safe so why not help them by relieving their stress and tension?! If you fit any of our 3 categories then keep your eyes peeled because Shine On just might Show Up to your business next!
Come MELT with Teddi!
The MELT Method® is a breakthrough self-treatment system that restores the supportiveness of the body's connective tissue to eliminate chronic pain, improve performance, and decrease the accumulated stress caused by repetitive postures and movements of everyday living. MELT ( Stands for Myofascial Energetic Length Technique) simulates the techniques and results of manual, hands-on therapeutic approaches—we call it Hands-off Bodywork®. MELT techniques are designed to calm and rebalance the nervous system, so most students find MELT Method classes to be deeply relaxing.
New research has revealed the missing link to pain-free living: a balanced nervous system and healthy connective tissue. MELT directly addresses these two systems of your body in a way no other self-treatment can by teaching you how to rehydrate connective tissue and rebalance the nervous system.
MELT now has 1,300 instructors nationwide and a following that includes the Olympic snowboarder Jamie Anderson, who used the method on her feet before winning gold in Sochi, Russia. Ms. Hitzmann’s best selling book, “The MELT Method,” was published in 2013 by HarperOne.
Teddi Sharpton is an Advanced MELT instructor (Level 5). She is trained not only to use the balls and roller, but also to teach advanced techniques that are used to help stabilize the hips and shoulder girdle.
MELT is appropriate for nearly all ages and conditions and has helped hundreds of thousands of people eliminate chronic pain, even when they’ve had it for years or even decades.
MELT class is held on Saturday mornings at 9 am at Shine On Massage, located in Suite 903 of the Murchison Building. To reserve your spot contact Teddi Sharpton at 910-512-6834
