About Barefoot Bodyworks

The story began with me learning Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage… and morphed into so much more!

I discovered Ashiatsu Barefoot massage 10 years into my career as a bodyworker. I was experiencing carpal tunnel syndrome and would cringe when clients would request deep tissue massage. Within 5 minutes of receiving my first barefoot massage in training, I knew I had made the right decision about choosing to learn the barefoot modality. I am elated to report at 21 years into my career I am pain-free! My first massage of the day is just as strong as my last thanks to Ashiatsu! My clients report they cannot imagine having any other type of bodywork after experiencing the amazing results from Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage.

This was my first ashiatsu massage and it was amazing!! Kandace did so great, especially working with my schedule and getting me in last minute! I did the 30 minute massage, but I highly recommend the 60 minute massage if you have the time. Excited for my next one!

Barefoot Bodyworks is the only place I will get a massage. I have had a massage from each of the ladies, and I recommend them all. Each massage is so relaxing, but it isn’t JUST a “feel good” massage. You walk away with no tense or tight spots in your body!! 10/10 recommend!!

Sara Reeves

I had the pleasure of taking Tiffany's ashiatsu barefoot class! It was such an amazing experience and I highly recommend you take it. Tiffany is an incredible teacher and she gives hands on advice and the class is small so it's easier to learn. The location in Ft Smith was easy to find. If you're on the fence about taking a class from Tiffany, just go ahead and jump on over because it's so worth it!

I recently had my first stretching appointment with Sara at Barefoot Bodyworks and loved every min of it. She was kind and paid attention to my body language to ensure she wasn’t applying to much pressure or anything like that. She was concerned through the whole appointment making sure I was comfortable. My lower back had been bothering me for a few weeks so I booked an appointment thinking it would help out, it sure did. With traditional massages I always leave feeling sluggish and tired (I love traditional massages) but what was awesome about this experience was that even though the stretching felt good and I felt relaxed through the whole thing, when I left I felt fresh and awake. I will be back soon!

My neck was killing me when I went to see Tiffany at Barefoot Bodyworks. I left with my neck feeling so much better. The pain had decreased significantly with an increased range of motion in my neck. I will definitely be back for another massage!!!!

I highly recommended Tiffany Diaz, she’s very profesional on Ashiatsu classes amazing instructor. (More that 20 years of experience makes her the best on knowledge) She has everything equipped and designed so that you have no doubt, she always make sure that you understand everything we learn. Like her own YouTube Chanel, paper work, notes and Text messages She is very clear when speaking and patient! Location is very easy to find also she can help you order your barefoot massage tools. She’s a really hard worker her classes are completely prepare and she doesn’t waisted any time. Every minute counts!

Ale Silva

2019-08-27T19:28:58+0000

I recommend taking Tiffany's classes! She was an amazing instructor. I felt confident before I left the class. I took the Warm Bamboo Massage and it was life changing. I am heat sensitive. I have tried using hot stones and they are pretty much too hot for me to hold. Warm bamboo re-opened the heat service door for me. I could hold the bamboo with no trouble and use it at peak performance time.

Just took her bamboo class and if you need any CE classes , take them from Tiffany. The knowledge that she has and the time she takes to teach you the technique is awesome. Her classes have been my favorite to take for my hours.

I recently took the Ashiatsu Bar Basic class on August 10-11th, 2018 after I was referred to Barefoot Bodyworks by a coworker. Prior to booking, I contacted Tiffany to find out more details. She was so informative, kind and responded quickly. I’m from out of town and she is located right next door to a Holiday Inn and also really close to the airport. I didn’t even need a rental car. I used Uber to get from the airport to the hotel. Really, I could have just walked; It’s only like 1/2 mile. Tiffany really knows her stuff. I love that the class sizes are small. She is watching and correcting all your moves if you make a mistake and she also gives a lot of positive feedback when you are doing it well. She is well prepared and provides a lot of online materials for review, such as YouTube videos, course handouts, instruction manual and is available if you have questions later. I would recommend Tiffany (Barefoot Bodyworks) to anyone interested in learning Ashiatsu barefoot massage!

I recently learned Ashiatsu massage from Tiffany Diaz-Linam with Barefoot Bodyworks. I could not be happier! First off, I live in Salt Lake City Utah. I could have taken Ashiatsu training here, but I have learned that I am rather selective when it comes to who I want to receive training from. When I came across Tiffany Diaz on youtube, I was instantly drawn to her professional approach to teaching. I was equally drawn to Tiffany as its clear she takes fitness and health seriously and practices what she preaches. After contacting Tiffany about Ashiatsu training, she responding to me that day with enthusiasm and professionalism. She also gave me travel tips on where to stay in AR. There is a Holiday Express literally next door to her studio, and the airport is only a 5-minute drive. It made it really efficient to travel there by myself and not need a car. The training was an intensive 2 days, that started on time and we went straight to work immediately. I really enjoy the no-nonsense approach to massage training, and highly value that there were only two other students in the class besides myself. I left the two-day trainings feeling ready to do Ashiatsu on the public. We received a lot of hands on training, or "feet on training" during our class time, which is critical to feeling confident about selling a new massage modality through your business. Ashiatsu is unlike any style of massage, and Tiffany was there the entire time making sure our bodies were in the right place to prevent injury to ourselves or to the client. I also took the advanced Ashiatsu course the following day one on one with Tiffany. It was incredible to be a solo student, and I highly recommend if you take the beginning Ashiatsu course, that you follow up with one more day of advanced to tie it all together. I wanted to get the most out of my time in AR, and Tiffany definitely delivered. If you come down to AR to take Ashiatsu training from Barefootbodyworks, you should prepare to sweat, prepare to work, prepare to learn! Overall, Tiffany is an incredible teacher and leads by example. After I left AR, I felt on cloud nine. It is hard not to feel motivated around Tiffany! Overall, I took the leap to come to AR by myself not knowing Tiffany beforehand. And I can tell you, she is the real deal. I can also tell you, Ashiatsu was the right choice for me as I plan on having a lifelong career in Massage and need to use my body more efficiently, especially when it comes to deep tissue. Massage is really wearing on the joints, and by doing Ashiatsu, you can use your body in a radically different way. I also love receiving Ashiatsu. It feels like smooth, solid and deeper pressure that really gets the job done and keeps you very relaxed while doing so!

This past weekend I was fortunate enough to take Tiffany Diaz's Warm Bamboo massage class in Fort Smith, AR. I was pleased to be so welcomed in her work space and found her teaching to be very informative! I decided to purchase the bamboo stalks from her rather than an online source. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and craftsmanship of the bamboo stalks. Well worth the money spent! I am so glad I found this course as I wanted to expand my services offered to my clients. The course was a joy to be a part of. I learned so many great techniques with the warm bamboo and enjoyed receiving the treatment as well, so that I would know what I will be offering to my clients. Tiffany was so friendly and fun to learn from! I look forward to taking another class taught by Tiffany in the future!

I've had lots of massages, but none quite like the one I had today here at this place! It was the best massage I've ever had�. I would highly recommend visiting if you have not already! From now on when I need a massage this will be the place that I go�

This past month i took two of Tiffany's 3hr. Ceu classes. Autoimmunity for massage therapist and understanding inflammation,immunity, and the gut micro biome for massage therapist. Tiffany is amazing! She is always just a phone call away and extremely helpful with any questions you might have. She's really dedicated to helping you learn. Her web-site is easy to navigate. And the courses are jam-packed with information. In these courses you have material to read along with study guides and videos that really help reinforce the information. I gained a lot of knowledge from the classes. Definitely worth the money and time. I also love the fact that I could do these courses at my own pace. A++ all the way around!

I gotta say that I had a blast learning "Floor Ashiatsu" @ Barefoot Bodyworks with Tiffany Diaz-Linam. I had such an amazing experience and I learned so much in these 2 days course. Working on the floor made it so much easier then working on the table itself. (Well at least from my point of view ��) Loved the small classes she provides cuz this way we had Tiffany giving us her full attention! She answered all my question and even gave tips to better myself in the art of Ashiatsu! So pleased with my experience! This lady is the real deal, so knowledgeable, intelligent, wonderful person and always so happy and smily, that really made my class time worth more then a million bucks! Definitely coming back for my advance class at Barefoot Bodyworks in Fort Smith! Thank so much for the good time and knowledge you shared with us Tiffany! �� Tengo que decir que tuve un tiempo padrísimo aprendiendo "Ashiatsu de piso" en el estudio de Barefoot Bodyworks con Tiffany Díaz-Linam. Tuve una increíble experienciay aprendí tanto en esta clase de 2 días! Trabajar en el piso lo hizo más fácil para mí que trabajar en la mesa de masaje. (Bueno al menos para mí así fue��). Me encanto que la clase fue pequeña ya que así tuve todo la atención de Tiffany y de pasada me dio unos ideas para mejorar en el Arte de Ashiatsu! Estoy tan contenta con mi experiencia! Esta chica vale realmente la pena ir con ella! Es una chica muy conocedora, inteligente, magnífica persona, y siempre muy contenta y sonriente eso fue lo que hizo que mi clase valiera un más que un millón de dólares! Definitivamente voy a regresar a Barefoot Bodywork para tomar mi clase avanzada de Ashiatsu! Muchísimas gracias por los buenos momentos que pasamos y por compartir tu conocimiento, Tiffany! ��

I completed the 18 hour Basic Ashiatsu course with Tiffany Diaz this weekend and I am floored by how amazing barefoot work is! If I had to choose one massage modality to receive the rest of my life this would win hands down! Being able to give a full deep tissue massage without hurting my hands and wrists is gold. Tiffany is a wonderful instructor, she even took some great photos of me in action so that I would have images to use. The small class size means you have her full attention so you learn better and therefore leave feeling super capable of putting Ashiatsu to work for you in your own practice immediately. I will definitely be back to learn more, thank you Tiffany!

I love taking classes with Tiffany..the pace I do best with..very good instruction and materials..able to ask questions and get informative answers...upbeat and fun too :-) I would recommend taking classes with her to any and all my licensed massage therapists peers..I've taken so far the Ahhshiatsu and Bamboosage classes..loved both...plans to.take all the other classes she offers as the budget permits :-)

Since March 2017 I have taken three classes at Barefoot Bodyworks with owner/instructor Tiffany Diaz-Linam: Intro to Ashiatsu, Ashiatsu Bar Basic, and Bamboossage. Tiffany is a remarkable instructor who is energetic, passionate, and extremely knowledgeable about these modalities! Initially my friends recommended I take one of her classes. After my first class experience with her teaching methods and personality, I was drawn back for two additional courses, and…I’m looking forward to taking many more with her! Thank you so much Tiffany for teaching massage therapists alternative methods to work with our clients!

I love the fijian barefoot massage class! It is very hands on but also get the reading outline to read along with it. She is very informative and professional. I feel I will be able to use this class & techniques with ease. I'm very interested in taking more of her classes!

Sarah D Stevens

2017-01-08T22:16:35+0000

Before Tiffany's basic Ashiatsu class, working with my feet was the furthest thing from my mind but after experiencing her easy teaching style, top notch material and true dedication to her students' success, how could I not fall in love with this modality? Barefoot Basics is a must for every therapist's repertoire.

Jessica Tolliver

2017-01-01T00:14:00+0000

Fijian class was phenomenal! Perfect size, great atmosphere, teaching style and methods flowed together very well, and feed back throughout was very encouraging. I would recommend taking any class lead by Tiffany! I can't wait to come back!

This was a gift given to me and I am so thankful! I was skeptical about a barefoot massage...not anymore! Tiffany was a professional with her technique and how well she put me at ease. As soon as my session was over, I bought a GC for someone who would benefit from this unique and wonderful service. I will be back.
