For Your Best Health
Barefoot Massage allows your therapist to use their feet to deliver pressure and myofascial release, reaching depths that are both comfortable to receive and effective at treating pain, stress, and tension.
Sarga bodywork uses a sarga silk that allows your therapist to create high tack and drag strokes at an oblique angle, with a comfortable amount of friction to engage the fascia.
Welcome To Great Lakes Barefoot Massage!
I am your massage therapist, Shelby! I have over a decade of massage therapy training, including, Sarga, Barefoot Massage, and currently learning RAPID NFR. All massage techniques are myofascial-focused and RAPID NFR is neuro-fascial. Once you experience Sarga or Barefoot Massage, you won’t want to go back to traditional, hands-only massage. Whether you’re looking to relax and unwind, or crush chronic pain patterns that have impacted your quality of life for way too long, Great Lakes Barefoot Massage has just the thing for you!
Sarga Packages
Sarga Barefoot Massage is a unique bodywork technique using the sarga silk to deliver slow, intentional strokes that engage myofascial release and promote deep relaxation and structural alignment. It’s especially effective for clients seeking deep tissue work without the discomfort sometimes caused by traditional hand techniques.
90-Min (Floor)
If you’re new to Sarga, or floor work, this session allows for a chance to try this technique and decide if you like it. I’ll ask you if you’d like to proceed 15 min in and If Sarga isn’t for you, we can end the session, and I will refund you the remaining time left. This is also a good for anyone that wants to target up to 2 problem areas or wants to experience the general flow of a sarga session.
2-Hours (Floor)
*Most popular Sarga session* This 120 minute floor sarga session is done on a legless table set on a disinfected yoga mat and typically allows for a full body treatment. Ideal for taller clients or those who feel cramped on a standard table. Moderate, flowing pressure and a neutral headrest allow for deep relaxation. Must be able to get on/off the floor unassisted.
2.5-Hours (Floor)
The popular 2.5 hour floor sarga work with extended time to allow for more advanced techniques, such as pin and stretching of shoulder and hip muscles. If you suffer from shoulders that always feel rounded forward, upper back pain, or sore/stiff hips, this massage is for you
3-Hours (Floor)
This 3-hour, floor-based Sarga session is the gold standard for full-body work. Using slow, sustained compression and fascial release with anchored foot techniques, this treatment offers deep structural change, nervous system regulation, and lasting relief. Ideal for clients seeking maximum therapeutic benefit and space to unwind without rush.
90-Min (Table)
This 90-min Sarga session is performed on a raised table and is ideal for those who have difficulty getting on/off the floor. We’ll explore a full-body flow or focus on 1–2 key areas for a more targeted experience. While floor-based Sarga is the preferred method, this is a great intro option. Not recommended for tall or larger clients due to limited table space and weight restrictions.
2-Hours (Table)
This 2-hour Sarga session is performed on a raised table and is ideal for those who have trouble getting up from the floor. While some advanced side body and shoulder work is best done on the floor, this allows for a more complete full-body experience. We’ll use slow, sustained compression and fascial work to release tension. Not recommended for tall or larger clients due to table space and weight limits

Barefoot Massage Packages
Barefoot Massage is a bodywork technique using the therapist’s feet rather than their hands. This allows the massage therapist to achieve relief deep within muscles without the pain that can be caused by handwork. This technique focuses on myofascial release and utilizes Ashiatsu bars for balance and to create sustained pressure.
75-Min
75 minutes allows me to get the good majority, if not all of your body worked into a deeply relaxing, flowy barefoot massage that will leave you feeling lighter and refreshed. Perfect for barefoot massage beginners. If you’re new, I give you an “out” 15-20 minutes into your session when I ask about your comfort with pressure. If BFM isn’t for you, I will let you get dressed and refund you for the unused portion of your service.
90-Min
Don’t have 2 hours in your busy schedule? Want more than just a target area? This massage is ideal for athletes or anyone weighing at least 120 pounds or more that is looking for pain and tension relief or an amazingly deep, pain free relaxing massage.
2-Hours
Most popular barefoot massage service at GLBM. Everything is sore and you need the whole shebang? This service is for you. I use clean, soft bare feet, my body weight, and gravity to provide a deeper than deep slow gliding myofascial barefoot massage experience
2.5-Hours
2.5 hours may sound like a long time, but this allows me to treat the full body and add a focused 30 minutes on your face, scalp, and jaw or work in some sidelying massage if needed. Ideal for anyone looking to get the full body treatment and a sinus, neck & shoulder add on in one session.
3-Hours
Full body massage with multiple focus areas, can include sidelying work, sinus treatments, or assisted stretching. Must be an established client with Great Lakes Barefoot Massage to book 3 hour sessions.
