This innovative massage technique is gaining popularity across the world due to its ability to provide deep tissue work while also being gentle and relaxing.
Barefoot massage is a technique that involves the therapist using their feet to apply pressure to the body. This is done with the help of bars that are mounted on the ceiling.

The technique is particularly effective for people who suffer from chronic pain and tension in their muscles. It can help to increase flexibility and range of motion, and can also help to reduce the risk of injury.

Since 2016, there has been an eyebrow-raising movement in Europe; the International Massage Association held its first national championship, and we all watched with many questions about what has led to the creation of competitive, performative massaging for others to judge. A worldwide "look at me lawn" for circus tricks and performance art...or massage therapy? I'm writing this because I've been conflicted about this event and need it explained. I went into a career in massage therapy for several reasons. Those who know my story know that I have anxiety and found the massage and spa environment the perfect place for me early in my adult life. The wellness space is a sanctuary for those working hard to find a sense of well-being. Over the past 20 years, I've dedicated myself to this vocation. The massage therapy industry allowed me to have my own business, write a book, and lead others in this beautiful work I hope is plain to see that I'm passionate about. According to Texas laws, the state where I'm licensed, "Massage therapy" means the manipulation of soft tissue by hand or through a mechanical or electrical apparatus for the purpose of body massage and includes effleurage (stroking), petrissage (kneading), tapotement (percussion), compression, vibration, friction, nerve strokes, and Swedish gymnastics. The terms "massage," "therapeutic massage," "massage technology," "myotherapy," "body massage," "body rub," or any derivation of those terms are synonyms for "massage therapy." Side note: If I had my way, I'd expand this to include using the feet since Texas is leading the way in Westernized Ashiatsu-style barefoot massage. Go Center for Barefoot Massage! Woot! ;) It goes on to say that massage is a healthcare service if it's done for therapeutic purposes. WOOF! This document needs work. Because we can't universally agree that massage therapy is therapeutic by design is precisely why we are now seeing the American version of this competition popping up. I'm just a dinosaur here, but what happened to our priorities? We need help to provide massage students with quality education. We need help educating the public about professional massage therapy's therapeutic benefits. We need states like California to acknowledge the need for professional exams and instill values of integrity into the massage industry. Watching a man do a headstand on his client in a public arena with onlookers clapping makes me cringe. I did some digging to find out who benefits from this competition, hoping I could get behind it for helping a worthy cause like the massage therapy foundation, but am I missing something? I found an entrance fee of over $200 and things that serve the ego more than the betterment of our craft. I'm asking those who have drunk the Kool-Aid here to explain this event because I'm lost. Congratulations to the newest group of trained Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage Therapists!
I taught this group of licensed massage therapists how to give a safe and effective Ashiatsu-Style massage. My Fundamentals workshop is three days, 24 hours of intense physical and mental work. These ladies earned it! Find out more at www.texasashiatsu.com By Hillary Arrieta.
If you're looking for a new deep-tissue massage that relieves your muscle soreness and makes you feel relaxed, Ashiatsu is an excellent choice. Ashiatsu is a generic name for a style of massage performed with the massage therapists' feet instead of their hands, like more traditional Western styles. Recently, Westerners have used the term Barefoot Massage to describe this style. I'll use the two words interchangeably in this post. 1. No pain, No pain. Do you love deep tissue massages but hate the soreness and bruising that happens with some deep tissue sessions? Barefoot massage is DEEP but leaves no telltale signs afterward. The comprehensive tool (the foot) allows deep compressions over a greater surface area. It's often more tolerable than when massage therapists dig in with their elbows and knuckles. Ouch! 2. Ashiatsu reduces chronic pain. Barefoot massage reduces dense muscle tissue, Trigger points, and restricted fascia. This technique allows tissues to rehydrate, creating a healthy slide and gliding between soft tissues. If you tend to get stiff or have nagging pain, try Ashiatsu. I suggest my clients schedule three sessions every other week to see dramatic improvements. 3. Barefoot massage is the deepest deep tissue massage available. Ashiatsu is deep by design and can't be done with light pressure. If your deep tissue massage isn't cutting it, it may be time to level up. The angles of pressure and the leverage a professionally trained, licensed massage therapist can get by standing on the massage table and using their body weight is a different sensation than one who stands at the side of the massage table, and forces pressure with their upper body. Has this post inspired you to book a deep-tissue Ashiatsu massage? If so, I see clients four days a week at my office in Plano, Texas, and teach Ashiatsu workshops for licensed massage therapists. I do a detailed consultation before your first session to customize your massage and make it safe and productive. New and returning clients are invited to schedule online. Get the best deep tissue massage in Dallas, Texas. Dallas, Texas - Deep Tissue Massage: What you need to know about the deepest, deep tissue massage available. By Hillary Arrieta, Owner of The Heeling Hut Barefoot Massage in Plano Texas. Barefoot massage, sometimes called Ashiatsu, is arguably the deepest, deep-tissue massage available at your local Dallas massage studio, The Heeling Hut Barefoot Massage. With an exotic name and slightly intimidating equipment, Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage is when the licensed massage therapist uses their feet instead of their hands to give you a massage. The result is the most profound, consistent pressure you can ask for. It's a misconception that Deep tissue is just a DEEPER Swedish massage. Swedish massage, when done correctly, is a system that includes four kinds of techniques and joint mobilizations. Many therapists skip strokes and use long-flowing movements making it less effective. Deep tissue is a collection of actions that get to the deeper layers of tissue. Most clients who love Deep massages tell me that barefoot ashiatsu massage is the BEST deep tissue massage they've ever had = locally or on vacation. When massage therapist uses overhead bar support, they can use their weight instead of forcing pressure using pokey elbows and knuckles into their muscles. Getting the best massage in the Dallas area is easy with a well-trained massage therapist.
