Can you actually feel knots when you massage with your feet? Every barefoot therapist has more than likely received this inquiry many, many times. With a little bit of effort, anyone who has feelings on the soles of their feet can learn to pay attention to even the finest bit of grit under their tootsies.
When I was a brand new barefoot therapist 15 years ago, I remember feeling something on someone’s erectors under the plantar surface of my foot. I didn’t know what it was, so I held onto the bar and felt it with my hand. It was a knot.
Like with craniosacral, if you think you’re feeling something, you’re feeling something.
We’re going to get just a teensy bit sciency here.
