Clients who enjoy sports massage are a natural for this modality.  The first person Lolita Knight tried this on in the West was a runner who wanted to get in condition quickly for a marathon and had a great deal of scar tissue on his legs to break through.  People who prefer deep pressure throughout the entire massage will probably find it very satisfying.  It's more invigorating than go-to-sleep relaxing, and with the advantage of staying clothed and using no oil, makes it a possibility for a work break.

I especially like this technique for opening hips or shoulders. Using my feet means that my hands don't tire and I can apply more force in the process of mashing muscles. There is simply more strength in the lower body than in the upper body. Plus, if you've ever had elbow work to your glutes, you might find yourself pleasantly surprised that this technique is less painful - the heel is less pointy-feeling than the elbow.
