We appreciate the interest in experiencing our lineage of Barefoot Massage, but our classroom structure is a bit different than a typical massage school. We do not offer public student clinics or volunteer slots. Because Myofascial Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage is a high-pressure, advanced modality, we believe a student’s first sessions should be performed on ‘pro-bodies’—people who are already regular clients of…

Through evidence-based education, we are raising industry standards and challenging outdated perceptions, ensuring barefoot massage is recognized for its depth, skill,…
Most of us got into massage because we wanted to help people. Maybe we were the friend who gave shoulder rubs to everyone at parties. Maybe we knew we weren’t meant to be counselors — but we wanted to make people feel better, calmer, lighter. So we went to massage school eager to serve, eager to heal. What most schools…
Working closely with clients means we’re exposed to everything — their stress, their pain… and sometimes, their germs. Knowing when it’s safe to work on someone who’s been sick (or taking antibiotics) is essential for protecting yourself, your clients, and your practice. The basics: Antibiotics treat bacterial infections, not viruses (like colds or flu). Massage is contraindicated during active infection…

When we say the Center for Barefoot Massage is anatomy-based, we mean more than just learning muscle attachments. It’s about why we teach what we teach — and how it helps therapists adapt barefoot massage to their own bodies while improving outcomes for their clients. Traditional Ashiatsu often relied on set routines: the same strokes, in the same order, for…
