Most Amazing Use of the Human Foot

Austin Ashiatsu

Austin Ashiatsu will change the way you think about massage. The therapist, balancing above you on bars, uses her incredibly sensitive feet to palpate your muscles, and the feeling is almost indescribably strange and fantastic. Feet are bigger and stronger than hands, and the added use of gravity – you are actually being walked on – means that whole muscle groups are moved. This depth and the exquisite precision of placement are what make ashiatsu marvelous. Cathy Altman, owner of Austin Ashiatsu, is a magical creature with a rare gift to share.
