The Benefits of Barefoot Massage-Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy

Barefoot massage? It's not a foot rub; it's a form of bodywork where the practitioner uses their feet and gravity to deliver the massage. Different styles of barefoot massage have existed for hundreds of years. It’s an organic form of touch, rich in history and tradition and very effective for applying the deep pressure your clients always ask for. In this presentation, you’ll discover a very specific style of barefoot massage: Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy, which is a Western application of barefoot massage that uses deep compression and effleurage strokes applied while the practitioner holds onto bars overhead for support and balance. You’ll get a thorough overview of this unique modality and learn benefits, uses, and contraindications.
