Seated ashiatsu is becoming one of my favorite ways to work with the neck and shoulders ✨
Using my feet allows me to offer something totally different than hands alone—
• gentle neck traction (face up or face down)
• slow, grounded pressure through the traps
• heel glides that reach those deeper, jumpy muscles that don’t always respond to faster work
The pressure is broad, steady, and deeply regulating for the nervous system. A lot of clients are surprised by how safe and supported it feels—especially when the shoulders are guarding or the muscles won’t let go right away.
Seated ashi is amazing for:
– chronic neck & shoulder tension
– nervous system overwhelm
– people who need deeper work without aggressive pressure
As always, communication matters. Your body leads, I listen.
