First timer to Ashiatsu?  Been hesitant to try barefoot massage?  Read on to learn more about why it's been called the most luxurious deep tissue massage on the planet!

Below we've compiled a few misconceptions, FAQ's and benefits of Ashiatsu.

Misconception- The therapist is standing with full body weight on me.  I don't think I can take all that pressure.

- the therapist has full control of the amount of pressure that is used from light to deep.  One foot remains on the table while the other foot is doing the work.  The therapists has a light grasp on the bars overhead for balance

Misconception- The therapist is walking on me.

-the specially trained therapist uses oil and a gliding pressure of the foot.  There is no "static" pressure or "walking"  on the back.  Most people can't tell the difference between the hands and the feet.  

Benefits-There are many!

-The broader pressure of the foot stimulates your parasympathetic nervous system which puts you in to a deep state of relaxation.  

-Unlike the pointed tools of the elbow and thumbs which can be uncomfortable, the full surface of the foot, heel or ball of the foot help the therapist to work deeper without resistence.

-You do not have to love deep tissue to enjoy this massage!  It's great for clients who want just a medium pressure swedish massage as well
