Barbara R. Barnett, a native of the McCall, Idaho area, brings you more than fourteen years of professional massage and "hands on" healing experience. She helped establish and instructed at the first accredited massage school in the state of Idaho. She can also assist you in personal wellness as a certifed professional and instructor in Reiki, magnetic therapy and "hands on." She has created and developed her own patented Soft Touchtm Technique best known by clients simply for its "feathery touch." Soft Touch Bodywork was originally developed to aid fibromyalgia clients.

Barbara is now an instructor teaching the Soft Touch technique, Mountain First Aid, herbal identification and Reiki. She is a second generation herbalist and the author of "Mountain First Aid All Natural Healing." The book is an accumulation of many years spent in the mountains of Idaho and the application of the healing methods used in her business as a massage therapist and herbalist.

Student Feedback

"I would like to highly recommend Soft Touch training for your consideration. As a program of study, it will benefit both students who are new to energy work and those more experienced practitioners. I speak as one who has taken Barbara's course, watched her work with others, and been able to compare it to other courses I have experienced.

Barbara's years of experience and study are especially apparent as she teaches the many points and connections on the body and the techniques to release stored energies and toxins. Those with a good grounding in anatomy will especially benefit from her teaching.

Barbara's presentation style is clear and her manner is enthusiastic. While her expertise is very apparent, as a teacher she remains approachable and patient with her students. It is obvious that she considers healing a sacred art that comes first from the heart.

Again, I highly recommend Barbara Barnett as a healer and teacher and Soft Touch as a healing technique." —Marcia B., Ph.D, Administrator of Education, BSU.
