In japanese, Ashiatsu means “foot-pressure.” This style of barefoot massage is a centuries-old technique that utilizes deep-tissue foot massage therapy to reduce chronic pain and fatigue and heal old stubborn injuries. Yes, that means there will be someone walking all over you in the massage. It is awesome! In less than a minute you forget that it is someone's feet massaging you and you drift away to a state of bliss! The feet are the perfect tool for those who are looking for the most luxurious, relaxing and deepest massage available without the pain associated with traditional deep tissue massages.
The feet can provide the deep feeling that people look for and yet it is pressure spread out over a much wider surface area. The massage therapist can also do certain things in this style of massage that can't be done in a traditional hand massage. It would be difficult to work both the lower and upper part of the body at once in a traditional massage but with Ashiatsu it is normal to have one foot going down through the hips and out the legs while the other foot massages from the low back up to the neck. This gives a feeling of length to the body that is exquisite! There are so many fantastic techniques that are different from a traditional massage. We invite you to come experience this awesome massage style for yourself.
