The new Wine Barrel style foot spa by Ashiyu uses a retired French oak barrel half for the basin and the other half to cover the pump and heater. It has a finished look that is irresistable.

At just 28 inches wide, it also has the smallest footprint of any of our spas. And at under $1000, it is the most affordable we have offered yet.

The spa has a single speed pump and an electric heater with one-button controls. The barrel has several coats of low-VOC finish for a nice look that is impervious to all kinds of weather.

Options include deluxe insulating cover and matching cushion that turns the barrel into a comfy seat.  Going for the wine country look, or just want a spa with room for three soakers that fits anywhere, in any budget? This is your spa!

 

I was excited to learn about a company in Japan that builds deluxe foot spas. They also draw their inspiration for thier country’s hot-springs fed foot baths, calling their product “Ashiyu de Jet”. I wanted to contact them just to compare notes, putting aside any fear that they would want to compete with us or capitalize on our work somehow.

Imagine my suprise when they ordered a spa from us. We offered to send them a deluxe diamond model and were very relieved when it was set up and running in their facility. Now we are preparing a shipment of five long model spas.  I’m frankly still not certain why they are excited about carrying our spas. Their spas appear to be very nice, though maybe geared to larger installations. One consideration might be the price, which is about a tenth of what their standard model retails for, if my math is correct.  In any case, we are thrilled to be doing something to help the trade deficit and to be making new friends in a faraway land.

Alex and Alenka Bravo own the Wack Salon at the Jupiter Hotel in Portland. They were adding a massage area and wanted a spa the pamper their customers. They smartly chose our square Onsen style , and we customized it to fit in the special space they were creating.

The wrap-around bench provides pleanty of seating and hidden storage space. The open side faces a window that looks out at the courtyard of this hot-spot hotel.

The remodel was just completed and the salon now features two asian-inspired therapy rooms and an expert staff who provide holistic treatments, once your feet are good and warm, of course! Wack Salon and Massage can be reached at 503-232-9225 for appointments.
