Announcing Fijian barefoot massage training With the blessings of the original founder of Fijian barefoot massage, Lolita Knight, we have "fasciashi-ified" Fijian barefoot massage. What this means is that this barefoot massage work that's done on the floor is more anatomy based, and we've added in our ashi-straps as an option for balance. This work is perfect as a stepping stone into the world of barefoot massage, but it's a great way for experience ashiatsu barefoot therapists to increase their knowledge and gain more tools for their massage toolbox! Fijian barefoot massage is perfect for:

We knew it would happen but maybe did not understand the ramifications. You see, when you leave an Ashiatsu barefoot massage company and that company's not happy when you start your own barefoot massage company, you discover that some of the massage industry may not have your back. I have no doubt this happens in other sectors of business as well. When people are catty and maliciously gossip, there are bound to be aftershocks. But we shall persevere! Our new company, the Center for Barefoot Massage, is going strong. While currently my friend Jeni Spring and I are the only 2 teaching, we have other seasoned instructors coming on soon as well as some newbies. In fact, in my class this week we'll be working with a brand new instructor, one who's been doing Ashiatsu barefoot massage for many years. She's taken all levels of classes that I previously taught and runs a successful barefoot massage business. More on her later. Barefoot massage classes will soon be offered throughout the US. We have many awesome things going on right now that others don't--a membership site is in the works, and it will be chock full of information we know barefoot therapists need. Stay tuned! Our 2 year later Center for Barefoot Massage update... Turns out when you're bringing other barefoot massage instructors on board, writing barefoot massage blog posts, creating membership site, certifications, and all the STUFF there is in being a sole-prenuer, you may forget about your little website blog. Here's the quickie on the Center for Barefoot Massage:
Whew! Yah, baby. We're chuggin' along. Tuesday, May 17 2016

There's no one massage that is a right fit for everyone. Indeed, many people like a variety of massage styles. The therapist I usually trade with is a CE (class) junkie. I schedule 2-hour massages with her--she works deeply with Ashiatsu and cupping, stretches me with Ashi-Thai and spends extra time trying out new stuff she's learned. For my birthday a few months ago, I went to another therapist for deep tissue hands on massage. Sometimes I like craniosacral, which is super light and amazingly relaxing. When a new client came in today, he told me how he's been getting a massage every month. He's got some weird pains that have lasted for years--he has seen doctors, osteopaths, acupuncturists, chiropractors and massage therapists. He never really finds respite. A few weeks ago he was complaining to his buddy that he felt like he needed someone to walk on him. "Well," said his friend, "have I got a therapist for you!" So I cautiously worked on him. Usually, I can tell what pressure someone needs, but this was a special case due to what was going on with his body. Over and over again I checked with him about pressure, using cupping therapy, ashiatsu barefoot massage and Ashi-Thai stretching. Smiling broadly when he came out of the session, he happily exclaimed, "I've been looking for you for 10 YEARS!" There's no better compliment for a therapist when a client feels so much better after a session. Sure, getting paid is great, but a smile where there was just a short time ago a grimace is what makes it click for massage therapists. I got into this business to help others, and it's days like today that really makes my heart happy. |
