The original western barefoot bar massage technique using deep tissue/compression strokes that glide over the body. Movements are combined with centrifugal direction. Specific strokes create a structural change in chronic soft tissue damage creating deep relaxation. Bars are used above the head for support and balance; lubricant is used on the body. Developed by massage therapist Ruthie Piper Hardee in 1995 as a result preventing scoliosis and disk pain associated with bending over the table to deliver deep tissue massage.


Why Do Consumers Love This Work So Much?

The continuous deep tissue pressure the therapist is able to deliver with the feet covers more areas at once than hands. The foot is broad and makes the compression smooth sumptuous not bony or prodding like using an elbow, thumb or massage tool. The continuous pressure is easily maintained hour after hour. Consumers feel like they got a 2 hour massage in about 40 min. They get relief from chronic inflammation faster than a normal massage. The results of those suffering from chronic back, neck and shoulder pain. I have received many amazing testimonials. Our clients show dramatic results with better posture and over-all well being.
