Introductory Seated

Low Back & Shoulder

If you are a currently working, experienced Ashiatsu therapist and have clients dealing with pains in either or both shoulder and low back areas, this is the course for you. As long as you have taken a full beginner's course of Ashiatsu, practiced barefoot massage within the past three months, and have had an average of three practices/sessions using the modality per week, you are eligible for this course. These protocols are effective and specific to the target areas and will provide great relief for your clients, and cost you less energy and time than traditional techniques.

Advanced Two-Footed

If you have a majority of clients that weigh a lot more than you do, this may be the course for you. While two-footed techniques often catch much attention by therapists wanting to try them, there are specific reasons to do or not to do them, for both therapists and clients. This course works well to add to another Advanced course if you are a lighter-weight, more petite therapist. Two-footed techniques require a lot of practice and will be more strenuous to learn than one-footed techniques. Two-footed work is not recommended for overweight or obese clientele, and has a wider range of contraindications.
