The Foot Massage Girl in the news

The Foot Massage Girl. Yep, that's me. You all know by now that I do more than just massage your feet, at Heeling Sole, I massage you with my feet.  The ongoing public awareness efforts on the benefits of Ashiatsu for me are always in motion, trying to clue people in and help them better understand the barefoot massage techniques that I do.

(If you've made it this far into the post, and are looking for just a foot massage, well that's not what I do, but you can get an excellent Reflexology session with my office mates - but you might as well try an Ashiatsu bare foot massage in San Antonio with me - because it's awesome!) 

Word gets around and sometimes I get picked up by the media. Last year I was featured on Streets Corner, a local news segment, and I was also awarded Best Massage Therapist in the San Antonio Current! 2013 is off to a big start in the news: this month I'm featured in not one, but TWO articles on Ashiatsu!

One of these articles is a national spa publication, "Les Nouvelles Esthetiques and Spa"  (ooh, swanky - the foot massage girl goes to the spa!) I co-authored a piece on the clinical applications of Ashiatsu in a spa setting with the founder of Ashiatsu herself, Ruthie Piper Hardee! You can read this beauty here: "Hows your Pain Management Menu"

The second article is a feature in a local magazine, Natural Awakenings. You can pick up a hard copy of this great massage-centered issue for free at our office, Whole Foods and other healthy, happy places around San Antonio.... or just read it here: Sole-Ful Massage

I still hear many locals say "Oh, you are the who gives the Foot Massage!" - so at least people have heard about it, and I'm trying hard to keep spreading the word. You can always check out the Media Page on my website to see more Ashiatsu in the news... barefoot massage is a real thing, I'm not making all this up, I swear.

Couples Massage Class, January 5th 2013!

Happy New Year! If you are looking for a new way to spend quality time with your partner, don't miss the Couples Barefoot Massage Class I'm offering this Saturday. I usually reserve these classes for Licensed Massage Therapists, but this is a a very special version just for the general public. 

Ever tried to give your sweetie a massage before? Some of us are naturals, but not everyone is blessed with the gift of giving a great massage.This public massage class offers a fun and relaxing approach to compassion and compression with your best friend. You and your buddy will learn basic barefoot massage techniques that are both easy to give and delicious to receive. It's a 3 hour class that will help you both relax all year!
Anyone can join! $45/couple, $25/solo. For more info, to see a video, and to sign up, visit http://www.heelingsole.com/community-classes.html

Meet you under the MistleTOE!

It's December already, and if you are already shoppin', be sure and save yourself some time to drop onto my massage table - I have a few appointments open this month. I'll help squash out the Bah-Humbugs and Grinches in your tight shoulders, make your tense muscles melt like a snowman in Texas, and bring back your holiday glow under my mistleTOE! 

 

So what's Heeling Sole got in store for you this Heeling Holiday season?

  • Gift Certficates for specific services 
  • Gift Certficates for dollar amounts
  • Couples Massage Class right after the New Year
2012heelingholidays

 

Gift Certificates are great for stocking stuffers, presents for that special someone or for the boss you wish would chill out, AND they are easy to wrap! Available in any dollar amount, or for any barefoot massage service on my menu!*


I'll be offering a Barefoot Massage for Couples class on January 5th - it's a great way to start your New Year off on the right foot.  Resolve to spend more quality time together with the one you meet under the real mistletoe. The healing power of touch is amazing, and I'll teach you easy ways to help your family “heel” with some barefoot massage tricks. Sign up for the January 5th class here, it's $45/couple.

 

The supply store at my office is over-stuffed with great gift ideas. We've got shelves full of aromatherapy, allergy remedies, self massage tools, all natural crèmes, lotions and oils, as well as relaxing music and great books. I can even order you discounted professional-grade massage tables and supplies if you want!


*Hot Tip: Prices for my 90 minute and 2 hour long sessions are increasing slightly starting January 1st. If you buy a Gift Certfiicate for a 90 minute or 2 hour long session, the 2012 prices will be valid for that gift. Gift Certificates for flat dollar amounts only go towards the price of the service at the time the gift card is redeemed.  So make sure you buy a gift certificate for a specific service if you want it to be fully paid for in 2013. Otherwise a Gift Certficate for a flat rate $115, for example, would cover a 90 minute session in 2012, but in 2013 the gift card recipient will need to pay $5 at the appointment to fully cover the cost of the massage.
