This protocol varies from other barefoot techniques in that no bars, overhead ropes, or oil is required. All techniques presented can be done with clients fully clothed in soft clothing, laying on cushions & the therapist can be barefoot or wear cotton socks. Therapist may stand or sit in a chair. These techniques similar to Sports Massage have a deep therapeutic effect on the client without putting any stress on the therapist’s body as hands are almost never used.

Students will learn the benefits and proper application of these full-body massage techniques. Michelle has advanced training in Fijian massage from the founder of Fijian Massage, Lolita Knight and is one of her few certified instructors.
