the barefoot sage experience

Our foot spa offers a rare and unique spa experience. We focus on both the massage therapy and its many benefits to your mind and body; as well as the effect of a community based healing and relaxing environment. Please feel free to come alone and get away from the distractions and stresses of your everyday life, or bring a group and enjoy the same effects in a welcoming group setting. We always want to ensure that you get the most out of your time with us so please feel free to call us anytime with questions you may have. If we do not answer please do leave us a message and we will always call you back!!

check in

Please plan on arriving approximately 10 minutes before your scheduled appointment time.  This time allows us to go over a brief orientation with our guests. It will also help ensure that you receive every minute of your treatment with us!! While we always do our very best to accommodate late arrivals, we may have to shorten treatment times if needed.

electronic devices

We ask that cell phones and other electronic devices be turned off or set to silent during your visit with us. This policy allows us to enhance the healing and relaxing atmosphere we strive to maintain here at The Barefoot Sage.

children

We are very proud to consider ourselves a child friendly spa. We realize that the demands of parenting can make it difficult to find time to care and nurture oneself and we are excited to offer you that opportunity!! However, we ask that parents be considerate of other guests when considering whether or not to bring a child. Due to the setting of our treatment area we ask that infants rest in their carriers or in the arms of a responsible adult, likewise, we ask that toddlers spend their time comfortably in a stroller or along side a responsible adult. Please feel free to call if you have any questions regarding this policy or the layout of our spas.

scheduling group treatment (parties of five or more guests)

We are looking forward to assisting you in the planning and coordinating of your next group or party with us here at The Barefoot Sage.

Below you will find a few items of note to assist in planning your next visit:

*Reservations for groups of 5 or more guests must be secured in advance with a valid credit card number; please note that a different form of payment may be used for actual services at the time of your party. These include cash, visa, mastercard and check.

*We will provide the party coordinator with confirmation of the party and its individual appointments once all necessary information, including the name of each guest along with their choice of treatment is completed.

*Please notify us of cancellations or changes of participants or treatment selections 2 full days prior to that of your party to avoid being charged.

If you have any questions about booking a group visit or party at The Barefoot Sage, please call and speak with a spa specialist!

tea and treats

The Barefoot Sage offers a wonderful menu of aromatic and delicious teas and treats available for purchase along with all of our amazing treatments! However if you would like to bring treats in you are welcome to do so. We ask that you bring in finger foods that can be enjoyed while receiving a treatment. Individual lunch baskets or boxes work quite well. Due to space layout and time limitations, it is not currently feasible to set up tables or serve food during treatment time.

alcohol

The Barefoot Sage provides holistic spa treatments and strives to relax the body and mind as well as promote wellness with therapeutic foot massage. We feel alcohol diminishes these effects in the following ways:

**Dehydrates the body

**Dulls the senses, decreasing the ability to adequately feel heat and touch

**Massage can increase the affects of alcohol in some people.

It is for these health based reasons that we do not allow alcohol at The Barefoot Sage.

gratuity

The Licensed Massage Therapists that provide our foot treatments at The Barefoot Sage are among the best in the Northwest. Each takes special care to ensure that your treatment is of the best quality. Our therapists along side our spa managers seek to provide you the best possible experience form the moment you walk through our doors. Please note that treatment prices do not reflect gratuity. Industry standard gratuity is 15 to 20 percent. We invite you to recognize the exceptional skill of our therapists by including a gratuity with your payment. As noted above, a 20 percent gratuity will be added automatically for parties of five or more guests.

We would like to thank all of you out there for allowing us to do what we love! We look forward to seeing you very soon!!
