Ashiatsu

Ashiatsu is a form of massage therapy where the practitioner uses their feet to deliver deep, broad pressure to the client's muscles. Originating from Japan, "ashi" means foot, and "atsu" means pressure. The therapist skillfully balances and applies controlled foot strokes while holding onto overhead bars for stability, allowing for a powerful yet smooth massage. This technique can reach deeper layers of muscle tissue than traditional hand massage, helping to relieve tension, improve circulation, and promote relaxation. Ashiatsu is suitable for those seeking a more intense, yet soothing therapeutic experience.
