ASHIATSU MASSAGE IS NOW AVAILABLE IN OUR SPA
We are so excited to now offer this deep and luxurious massage style in the Spa at Castle Hill Fitness!
The word “Ashiatsu” comes from the Japanese words “ashi” (foot) and “atsu” (pressure). With the Ashiatsu technique, the therapist holds onto parallel overhead bars and uses their clean feet to apply pressure in broad, fluid strokes. The use of the bars allows the practitioner to work with gravity to apply deeper, more even pressure. The result is an intensely relaxing massage session. The broader surface area of the foot offers a more comfortable sensation when pressure is applied, as opposed to the pointier thumb or elbow used in a deep tissue massage.
Most Ashiatsu techniques are done with one foot at a time, in a specific and focused way, or by sitting on a stool to use both feet at the same time. The deeper pressure applied with the Ashiatsu method offers a greater sense of relief to the muscles and fascia, leading to increased circulation of the blood, pain relief, and greater feelings of decompression.
