Level 1 - Ashiatsu Bar Massage

Course overview

2-day live, in-person class, 9am-6pm both days. This comprehensive class introduces LMT to the modality of Ashiatsu massage and the many benefits it brings to LMT and their clientele. Students learn to use their body weight along with movement and gravity to apply pressure and massage clients. The majority of your class time is spent learning Ashiatsu technique with the focus on developing proper body mechanics, barefoot massage application and palpation skills. You'll be taught a full body Ashiatsu massage routine consisting of seated and standing techniques to perform both posterior and anterior Ashiatsu massage.---- Our feet are incredible massage tools that you'll learn to use much like you already use your hands and arms to massage with. Massage techniques you'll learn in this class are effleurage, petrissage, compression, trigger point, and cross-fiber friction. Developing the ability to perform these massage techniques with your feet allows you to avoid the wear and tear many LMT experience in this career. In this class you'll learn to perform therapeutic massage in a way that strengthens your body and improves your posture EVERY SINGLE SESSION you do.
