Ashiatsu

Picture
Although the Japanese term "Ashiatsu" is used in the trade name, the technique Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy® and its application are very different. The root word “Ashi” is Japanese meaning "foot" and "Atsu" means "pressure". The roots of Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy® came first from the Philippines and then from India. This American adaptation has become truly a western phenomenon.

The application of this barefoot massage technique uses deep compression effleurage strokes that glide over the body. Bars are used above the head for balance and  lubricant is essential for its purest application. Flowing centrifugal and centripetal force is combined with push, pull, and pumping effleurage movements. The results relieve symptoms of chronic soft tissue damage and in some cases contribute to a structural change.
