Ashiatsu
Description
Ashiatsu is a type of barefoot massage that uses the therapist's feet to apply deep, consistent pressure to the client's body. The word "ashiatsu" is Japanese and translates to "foot pressure". Ashiatsu incorporates techniques from Thai massage, Keralite foot massage, and barefoot shiatsu. It's performed on a massage table, and the therapist uses their body weight to control the intensity of the massage. Ashiatsu can include deep compression, gliding strokes, and assisted stretching.
