What is "Sokuatsu"?

Sokuatsu is a 'stretch-based' massage in which 95% of the treatment is conducted by the practitioner's feet. The main aim of sokuatsu therapy is to loosen the inner muscles in order to regain a smooth flow of the lymph.

 

As mentioned above, since this massage is conducted using the feet, you will be able to experience a pressure roughly 3~5 times stronger than a shiatsu-based massage (a type of massage conducted with fingers). That being said, the sole of a foot has a larger mass area than a finger, hence it is less likely that you will experience muscle-tissue tear from the treatment.

What are the results?
