ASHIATSU – “Ashi” meaning foot and "atsu" means pressure
Ashiatsu is a deep compression, extraordinarily relaxing massage delivered with the massage therapist's bare feet. The client rests comfortably on the massage table while the Ashiatsu therapist delivers deep tissue results relieving stress and tightness with a healing touch. Although the work can be deep, the therapist can adjust the pressure to work on any client and their preference. The therapist’s foot, works just like a hand, only bigger. Some clients have said that they did not even realize a foot was massaging them! The one-footed strokes can be applied to anyone, regardless of their height or weight. It is a profoundly relaxing experience, a modern refinement of ancient techniques and quite effective at soothing sore muscles and working out the everyday stressors that our bodies hold.
