A Great Invention for Ashiatsu Massage Developing !!

Our Innovation and the Future of Ashiatsu Full-Body Massage

 

Barefoot Massage Therapy : A Timeless Tradition in Chinese Medicine

Barefoot massage, one of the traditional techniques in Chinese Traditional Medicine, carries the rich

cultural legacy of the Chinese people. However, for centuries, it has been hindered by the use of unsafe

traditional equipment—two parallel bars mounted above the massage therapist’s head. This outdated

design has stifled substantial technical advancements in the practice. Especially during the rapid growth

of various service industries in China in the 1990s, a lack of standardized training led to frequent

accidents in barefoot massage therapy, sometimes resulting in client injuries.

In 2004, Professor Tao Ye from Heilongjiang Province published the book Barefoot Massage Therapy,

which offered valuable insights into the technique. Yet, the book failed to explore the potential of

barefoot massage for gentle applications, such as abdominal therapy, and its profound impact on key

acupuncture points like Shenque (CV8) and Guanyuan (CV4) in the abdomen. Even today, most

traditional Chinese massage therapists limit barefoot massage to applying pressure on muscles,

neglecting the broader possibilities this method could achieve.

 

Our Breakthrough: The Ashiatsu Full-Body Massage Technique

 

The Innovation: Movable Barefoot Massage Gripping Bar Rack

 

To overcome the limitations of traditional Barefoot massage therapy, we had designed and have got

patent in the United States a Movable Barefoot Massage Gripping Bar Rack. This groundbreaking

invention eliminates the need for parallel bars fix-amounted, giving therapists the same level of

dexterity and freedom with their feet as with their hands. This innovation allows for precise foot

movements, unleashing the full energy potential of the feet.

We introduced a comprehensive Ashiatsu Full-body Massage technique, starting with gentle

abdominal massage. By applying light pressing and kneading motions, clients experience a soothing

relaxation, which gradually transitions to medium and deep-pressure massages. This technique aims to

strengthen the body and improve overall well-being. It follows a structured approach:

        A, From gentle to firm: Begin with light pressing and kneading, then increase pressure gradually

        B. From surface to deep layers: Start with superficial fascia, and then target deeper muscle layers.

        C. From broad circulation to focused acupoint energy penetrating: Begin with overall blood

flow activation, and then concentrate on energy channel and acupoints energy penetration.

This systematic method ensures the massage is both safe and comfortable while delivering remarkable

health benefits.

Looking Ahead: The Rise of Ashiatsu Full-Body Massage

With this invention, we aim to revitalize the traditional art of barefoot massage and inspire global

appreciation for this ancient practice. By fostering collaboration and encouraging bold experimentation,

 we encourage the global adoption of Ashiatsu full-body Massage. Our ultimate goal is to see this

technique thrive as a hallmark of all the massage enterprise, achieving new heights in both innovation

and cultural heritage.

 

Therapeutic Deep Tissue Massage

 

The Foot Pressure Massage technique offers an innovative solution for deep muscle tissue treatment by combining the powerful energy advantages of foot pressure, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) meridian theory, and modern trigger point therapy. This method utilizes the sole of the foot to activate TCM meridian pathways and the big toe for precise stimulation of acupoints. The process begins with gentle relaxation massage and gradually increases energy penetration to achieve deep muscle conditioning.

Additionally, Western trigger point therapy is integrated, where the big toe applies pressure and kneading motions on trigger points, effectively alleviating muscle pain.

Encouraging Collaboration in Research
We invite more TCM experts to engage in research and practice to further refine this innovative big toe therapy. Through collective exploration, we aim to discover more effective therapeutic techniques and methods.

Common Applications of Foot Pressure Massage for Muscle Pain Relief:

  • Shoulder Issues: Shoulder joint pain and rotator cuff injury-related discomfort.
  • Back Discomfort: Rhomboid muscle pain, chronic lower back pain, and lumbar sprains.
  • Lower Limb Symptoms: Iliotibial band syndrome, calf muscle strain, and ankle sprains.
  • Foot Conditions: Plantar pain and related ailments.

This technique not only provides effective relief for muscle pain but also stimulates the body’s self-healing ability, offering clients a comprehensive improvement in overall health.

 

 

 

Ashiatsu Full-Body Lotion Massage 

 

The lotion massage technique using foot pressure integrates the essence of traditional Swedish massage. It retains the classic methods of Swedish massage, such as long strokes, short strokes, friction, and vibration, tapping, and stretching, while extending the massage path and enhancing the depth of pressure through the application of foot pressure. This innovation makes the massage more effective, particularly in targeting deeper muscle layers.

Key Benefits of the Foot Pressure Lotion Massage:
This technique is effective in addressing various conditions, including:

  • Muscle Injuries: Relieves strain and muscle soreness.
  • Chronic Pain: Alleviates conditions such as lower back pain, arthritis, and sciatica.
  • Sports Injuries: Addresses common athletic issues, such as tennis elbow.
  • Other Conditions: Provides relief for issues like carpal tunnel syndrome.

Versatile Application
The adaptability of the foot pressure lotion massage is evident in its ability to be performed in diverse settings, including standard massage tables, floor mats, or Shiatsu massage beds, catering to the varied needs of clients.

Additional Benefits
This massage method effectively promotes blood circulation, aids in fatigue recovery, relieves stress and tension, and enhances mental well-being. It offers a holistic sense of relaxation and rejuvenation for both the body and mind.

 

Asian Barefoot Massage

 

The Asian Barefoot Massage is rooted in the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine's twelve meridians theory. By stimulating key acupoints, it helps clients improve the flow of “Qi” and blood, strengthen immunity, and achieve the benefits of longevity and wellness.

This technique embodies the essence of traditional Asian massage practices, including Thai massage, Chinese Tui Na massage, and Japanese Shiatsu. A defining feature of these methods is that clients remain fully clothed during the massage, offering convenience and comfort. Building on these traditions, we have innovatively replaced hands with feet to achieve deeper pressure and enhanced effectiveness. The convenience and privacy of clothed massage sessions contribute to its designation as the "Asian Barefoot Massage."

Customized and Flexible
The Asian Barefoot Massage can be tailored to individual needs, offering either gentle relaxation or deep pressure. The intensity and techniques are adjusted "to fit the individual," ensuring a personalized experience.

Enhanced Effectiveness
By substituting the sole of the foot for the palm and the big toe for the thumb, this technique delivers more powerful energy penetration, providing clients with profound relaxation and a health-enhancing experience.
