PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ashing method capable of suppressing a popping phenomenon, to provide an ashing apparatus, and to provide a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. SOLUTION: In the ashing method, while irradiating a heating gas to a resist pattern 101 that is formed at the upper part of a silicon substrate 100 and having an alteration layer 101b formed at the surface layer in an oxygen-containing atmosphere, the silicon substrate 100 is cooled down to the temperature lower than the heating gas to remove the resist pattern 101.
