Did you know Sarah Richardson, Registered Massage Therapist, offers Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage at the Life Therapies clinic in Ottawa?
Ashiatsu comes from Japanese. It is a term that describes a massage where the feet are used to apply the pressure. “Ashi” means foot and “Atsu” means pressure. Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage is an ancient art. It combines a dynamic range of fluid and flowing movements, all the while providing the recipient with the key benefits of a deep tissue massage for muscle recovery.
If you have recently visited Life Therapies, you may have noticed a set of parallel bars that have been installed on the ceiling in one of our treatment rooms. These bars been placed directly above the massage therapy table, so Sarah is provided with a secure support while she massages a client using her feet. In essence, Sarah uses gravitation force and distributes her body weight by holding on to the bars on the ceiling, while using her feet to deliver the necessary massage strokes. The result is a painless pressure like no other.
Sarah’s clients report an incredible feeling of wellness, something many old associated with a deep tissue massage. Others feel fully invigorated and truly relaxed. Ashiatsu is known for bring the “deepest, most luxurious massage on the planet” and Sarah’s clients wholeheartedly agree.
