Ashiatsu Massage: What you need to know...

Have you ever wondered about the world of massage beyond traditional techniques? If you're seeking a truly unique, Innovative and deeply relaxing experinece, Ashiatsu massage might be just what you're looking for. Aschiatsu, which translates to "foot pressure" in Japanese,is a massage technique where I use my feet to deliver deep, broad consistent pressure while performing therapeutic massage strokes. Don't let the idea of feet on your back deter you - this technique is performed with the utmost care and precision, offering a level of pressure that hands alone often can't achieve.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING AN ASHIATSU MASSAGE :

​

If you're considering trying Ashiatsu for the first time, you might be wondering what the experience entails. Here's a breakdown of what you can expect:

Preparation

Before your massage, i will discuss your health history and any areas of concern. You'll be asked to lie face down, typically unclothed but draped with a sheet for modesty.

I disinfect my feet before our session, it's a mandatory element of hygiene. Soft tantric music, scented candles and relaxing atmosphere i will prepare in advance

The massage process

During the massage, your therapist will use overhead bars for balance while applying pressure with their feet. They'll use long, gliding strokes along your back, legs, the face (at your request) and other large muscle groups. The pressure can be adjusted to your comfort level, so don't hesitate to communicate with your therapist throughout the session.

After the Massage

Following an Ashiatsu massage, you might feel a bit sore, similar to how you'd feel after a deep tissue massage. It's important to drink plenty of water to help flush out toxins released during the massage. You may also notice improved flexibility and a sense of deep relaxation that can last for days.

Is Ashiatsu Right for You?

While Ashiatsu can be beneficial for many people, it's not suitable for everyone. If you have certain health conditions such as osteoporosis, recent injuries, or are pregnant, other massage techniques might be more appropriate. Always consult with a healthcare professional before trying any new massage technique.
