Ashiatsu
Overview
Ashiatsu (“ashi” meaning foot and “atsu” meaning pressure in Japanese) is inspired by techniques used in ancient forms of barefoot massage. A therapist is supported by bars suspended from the ceiling and applies pressure to strategic points along the spine and body to achieve maximum compression.
