What is Ashiatsu?
In the Japanese language, “ashi-” means foot, and “-atsu” mean pressure. Ashiatsu is a massage modality in which the massage therapist uses their feet in combination with their body weight to give broad, consistent, and compressive pressure throughout the massage on a treatment table with overhead parallel bars for the massage therapist to use for balance and safety. Ashiatsu is designed to give you the results of a deep tissue massage but with the comfort of a Swedish relaxation massage. Highly customizable to your specific needs, Ashiatsu is great for both relaxation lovers and deep tissue enthusiasts!
Ashiatsu is incredibly versatile, enabling the therapist to utilize during the session other therapeutic modalities such as connective tissue, sports massage, active release, trigger point therapy, and more!
