China Facchini
China Facchini: Founder. Educator. Barefoot Badass.
With over 20 years of hands-on experience (literally), China Facchini has become a bold force in the massage industry. Since 2005, she’s been mentoring, instructing, and inspiring massage therapists across the country—sharing her deep knowledge, razor-sharp technique, and signature no-nonsense heart.
Licensed in multiple states and now rooted in South Carolina, China wears many barefoot hats: she’s Co-Director of the South Carolina Massage Championships, instructor for DeepFeet Bar Therapy and Sarga Bodywork, and a fierce advocate for elevating barefoot massage on competitive and educational stages.
Not one to stay still for long, China is also the founder of the South Carolina Massage Championship, a founding member of the American Competitive Massage Alliance, and the visionary behind Ashiatsu Myrtle Beach and The Ashiatsu Collective. She's competed, judged, directed—and now champions the Barefoot Bodywork Category in state-level massage competitions, at the American Massage Championship and has global ambitions to plant those barefoot roots worldwide.
If you're looking for someone to lead, lift, and level up the massage profession—look no further than the woman standing strong on the bars.
