Joy Massage
Ashiatsu massage is a unique deep tissue therapy that uses the therapist’s feet instead of hands to deliver broad, even pressure across the body. The word “Ashiatsu” comes from the Japanese words ashi (foot) and atsu (pressure). During the session, the therapist uses overhead bars, ropes, or other supports to maintain balance and control while applying slow, gliding strokes with their feet.
This technique allows for deeper, more consistent pressure than traditional hand-based massages, making it especially effective for relieving chronic muscle tension, improving flexibility, and increasing circulation. The broad surface of the foot distributes pressure evenly, reducing discomfort while reaching deep layers of muscle tissue.
Ashiatsu is ideal for athletes, individuals with dense muscle mass, or anyone seeking a deeply relaxing yet powerful bodywork experience. It helps elongate muscles, decompress joints, and promote better posture by releasing tightness in the back, shoulders, and legs.
Despite its intensity, Ashiatsu massage feels smooth and soothing, often described as a combination of deep tissue and Swedish techniques. Each session is tailored to the client’s needs, ensuring a therapeutic balance between relaxation and structural relief.
Whether you’re recovering from physical stress or simply want to experience a new level of relaxation, Ashiatsu offers a grounding, restorative approach to whole-body wellness.
