Best Massage in Cincinnati---Specializing in barefoot deep tissue massage Tuesday, October 09 2007
Small class size, with typically no more than 8 students per instructor, allows personalized instruction for each student. Our classes are small and fun, with each student being able to observe, receive and give each stroke. Each authorized AOBT instructor can give detailed information on each stroke, demonstrate the strokes on each student as well as guest clients, and will also help the student physically move through the stroke if that's what they need.

We've had a lot of questions about the Ashiatsu portable bars. What are they good for (or why would I want them)? What are the ashiatsu bar dimensions? Are they really portable? The healing power of heels is now truly portable. After initial ashiatsu training in our professional training program, our grads can purchase the portable bars to demonstrate deep compression and effleurage in a variety of settings. Many ashiatsu therapists who have trained in our adaptation of the ancient shiatsu technique have had great press with their portable bars. They have taken them to Chamber of Commerce events, sporting events such as GOBA (Great Ohio Bike Adventure), car dealerships, beaches, pools and more. In fact, at the national AMTA convention in Nashville, TN a few years ago, I was the only therapist featured in the local newspaper for the entire event. Was it was because I was the best therapist at the convention? No--it was because the portable bars are such an eye catcher and photograph well. The dimensions of the portable bars are impressive-at 7'11' high, they are 6' long and about 5 1/2 feet wide. They weigh about 75 lbs and can be set up in about 20 minutes. The Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy bars cost $999 and are available to graduates of our ashiatsu training program. Shipping and packing charges are added to the cost (they are shipped from Denver). As the commercial may say, "on your MasterCard, about $1100. Marketing effects: priceless!" Friday, October 05 2007
Have you checked out our founder's website lately? Sporting a new look, Deepfeet.com shows the covers of magazines we've been noted in, along with links to the articles. Take a peek-there's lots of pictures of Ashiatsu grads, portable bars and permanent training facilities too.

Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy has had press in at least 22 nationally published magazines as well as hundreds of articles about grads in local newspapers. Spa Finder magazine just voted Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy the "best skier's massage." Yet another kudos to the original source of barefoot massage in the United States!

Beginning in the spring of 2008, I will be offering the wonderful deep tissue Bamboo-Fusion training classes. Using warmed bamboo, the massage therapist will learn to knead, roll and work the client's muscles smoothly and comfortably. Using these tools will allow the LMT to work deeply without hurting herself/himself, and will have fun doing it! Please contact me at fredettemassage@fuse.net to be put on the mailing list for more information! Sunday, September 30 2007
At the AMTA convention this past weekend here in Cincinnati, the Ashiatsu booth picked a winner each day for a $200 gift certificate off tuition. The three winners were picked at random each day and did not need to be present to win. Congratulation to the following massage therapists!

Cincinnati's hosting of the AMTA national convention started off with a bang. Booths were busy with massage therapists and family members from all over the country perusing products and experiencing various massage modalities. The Ashiatsu booth was packed all night, and within an hour, the sign up sheet for free massages was filled up for the weekend! X chatted with Ashi grads and those who are very interested in watching, receiving and learning barefoot massage. Cincinnati AOBT grad James Reischmann and I gave demos all evening. The booth next to ours, Bamboo-Fusion, was also packed all evening with founder Nathalie Cecilia demonstrating bamboo chair massage to willing LMTs! Nathalie's bamboo massage website is here.
