Ever feel like your deep tissue massage just isn’t deep enough? Ashiatsu massage, also known as barefoot massage, might be the answer you’re looking for. This style of massage at Perpetuity Skin + Spa uses the massage therapist’s feet instead of hands to deliver a deeply relaxing and therapeutic experience. Ashiatsu massage has all the benefits of a deep tissue massage, such as pain relief, stress reduction, and improved mobility, we just think it gets you there faster, and easier.
Any deep tissue massage is focusing on going deeper into the layers of the muscle. In Ashiatsu massage, the therapist’s soles apply smooth, gliding pressure, moving blood and lymph while reaching deeper muscle layers. This feels more comfortable than pressure from elbows or forearms. In Ashiatsu massage, the Therapist’s positioning and gravity work together to allow your tissues to respond more effectively, and deeply, to the massage. These gliding strokes also promote healthy blood and lymph flow throughout the body, so, win win!
