The Healing Power of Ashiatsu Massage

As a massage therapist for 14 years, with a full time practice in San Luis Obispo (SLO), I am always looking for the most effective techniques to address pain issues in my own body.  I am thrilled to have trained in Ashiatsu because it is now the primary type of massage that I want to receive these days.  I need firm, consistent pressure to experience any real therapeutic change in my body.  And for the last 12 years I've had great difficultly finding hands-on therapists who are either capable or willing to do it.  A "skin-rub" massage does nothing to alleviate the chronic problems I've personally experienced.  The first time I received Ashiatsu I was deeply impressed.  Not only is the broad-pressure comfortable and relaxing but the healing effects for me, are phenomenal.   After several sessions, this is the first time in many years that I've been free of lower back, shoulder and neck pain. My flexibility and overall daily energy level is remarkably increased from where I was just one year ago today.  This happened through Ashiatsu by releasing the muscle adhesions and restriction in my back.  AMAZING!  Ashiatsu is also profoundly effective for the lymphatic and immune system, a great detoxifying modality, and it powerfully stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system. I am currently offering Ashiatsu massage sessions to all my clients.  The response has been excellent.   A recent client said: 

"This massage is a lymphatic steam-roller.  It's like relieving an old, deep itch that's been stuck in there for a long time and is finally getting scratched. I want to incorporate Ashiatsu into my sessions from now on!"   -Jennifer, San Luis Obispo,Ca
