Barefoot Ashiatsu Massage Services

What is a Barefoot Massage Anyway??

 

When someone hears "barefoot massage," they are often transported back to their childhoods, when they used to walk on Mom or Dad's back as a kid. Barefoot Ashiatsu is SO much more than back walking...in fact, there's hardly any of that happening at all! During a Barefoot Ashiatsu Massage, your therapist utilizes an overhead bar system for balance, and then uses her feet, heels, bodyweight and the magic of gravity to deliver consistent, fluid, deliciously deep pressure to chronically tight muscles and dense connective tissue (fascia.) This consistent, continuous delivery of pressure deeply relaxes the nervous system, allowing your tissue issues to unwind, unbind and move closer to a state of balance. Swapping out the sharpness of an elbow for a soft rounded heel allows trigger point work to be much more comfortable, thus more effective. Letha offers a few different types of Barefoot Ashiatsu Massage, keep reading below to see which type best suites your bodywork needs!

Barefoot Ashiatsu Massage

Are you brand new to the idea of barefoot ashiatsu, or is this your first massage EVER?! The classic session will be right up your alley. A perfect introduction, this session includes all the deep tissue work your heart (and muscles!) desire, with little to no stretching: giving you the time and space to sink into your body and relax on a deeply desriable level. Let it be known that while this modality is ideal for deep tissue lovers, people who prefer a medium-firm pressure will enjoy the benefits of barefoot as well. I nicknamed this session the "Maintenance" session: if you aren't experiencing many specific issues and your just wanting to chill and get your self-care on, then this is the perfect session for you!

All prices include gratuity. If paying with a card or venmo, an additional $5 service fee is charged

Advanced Barefoot Massage

If you are mighty active, recovering from an injury or surgery, have chronic pain that is affecting your ability to flow throughout your day, or just love an extremely thorough and in-depth massage, an Advanced Barefoot Session is exactly what the medic ordered!! More specific and targeted than the classic session, Letha combines the effective deep tissue work you know and love with a variety of therapeutic techniques  to promote deep relief and recovery. Passive Stretching, Myofascial Unwinding Techniques, Active Isolated Stretching and Trigger Point Techniques will be applied and utilized to release restrictions in the body and mobilize soft tissues that have been locked up for a long time. I nickname this session the "Mend" Session: If you are having specific pain in your body, or are recovering from a high impact sporting event/outing, a signature barefoot massage will be the perfect remedy to help bring you back into balance.

Soulstice Stretching Session

Like Thai Massage, but with a Soulstice twist! Prepare to become a wet noodle after a Soulstice Stretching Seession with Letha. During this massage we focus on increasing flexibility and range of motion by passively moving your body through a series of yoga poses, applying targeted stretches and deep, specific muscle compressions to problem areas. Utilizing heated flax seed pillows in tandem with stretching to melt down bound fascia, this session is AMAZING for re-establishing flow and deepening your awareness of your relationship with your body. You DO NOT need to be FLEXIBLE to enjoy a stretching session...in fact, if you are limited in your range of motion this session can not be recommended ENOUGH! The old saying is true..."If you dont use it, you lose it!" I nickname this massage the "Movement" session: The perfect treatment for anyone looking to increase their flexibility, range of motion, bring more fluidity and balance in their movements, or wants to reconnect with their body on a deep soul level.
