Ashiatsu Massage

Ashiatsu is a deep tissue technique that involves me using my feet to apply pressure during massage. This style features long, gliding, slow full body strokes. Ashiatsu has a deep and meditative quality to it with its combination of depth and repetition and is an effective way to release chronic density, deep knots, and widespread nervous tension held in the body. This style effects a larger volume of blood due to the increase in pressure, and therefore lowers your heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration rate. Folks who manage chronic anxiety find that the depth that Ashiatsu offers brings deep comfort and relief. Your comfort and pain tolerance are always respected, especially with this style!

I offer this treatment as a standalone option, and also offer a blended style where I also incorporate Myofascial Release techniques into the treatment. So expect both hands and feet to be used in the blended approach!

Myofascial Release

Myofascial means the system that contains, organizes and connects our muscles with each other across joints. This includes tendons, ligaments and bones. Because this approach is concerned with the relationship between all of the parts of our bodies, it is a technique that is exceptionally effective at unwinding patterns of movement that keep us stuck in unhelpful ruts.

Myofascial Release (MFR) is a lot like melting little glaciers within in our bodies. As these hardened fascial patterns release with warm and steady listening hands, the physiological and psychological guarding around an injured area softens into release. This is a mind/body shift in structure and this approach can pave a new way of being in the world that is more connected and integrated.

Expect slow, attuned work with MFR. It is gentle and deep at the same time. This is not an intense pressure style of massage like deep tissue.

My Training

I have been immersed in the embodied healing world for most of my life. After spending my younger life engaging in yoga, dance, and athletics, I decided to start my journey as a massage therapist after a car accident in 2019. Because of this accident, I was able to receive frequent bodywork from a skilled massage therapist who helped me heal and release the physical and emotional trauma from that experience. It was through this process that I became inspired to enroll in massage school in 2021.

I was trained in Swedish, Deep Tissue and Myofascial Release techniques in school. We also received foundational training in Craniosacral, Lymphatic Drainage, Neuromuscular, Reiki, Cupping and Gua Sha techniques.

After graduating and getting my license, I invested my time and money heavily in continuing education courses. I took more Deep Tissue coursework, as well as advanced Myofascial Release and Ashiatsu.

I seem to have a never ending curiosity about the variety of ways that one can engage with the body. I continue to invest in my education and do all that I can to be as skilled as possible to meet my clients in ways that help them relieve pain and solve the variety of issues that their bodies hold.
