That's what a friend implied about someone's feet after we had worked out. I did not have the pleasure of seeing or touching those feet personally, but think I would have found them a real challenge. For several months now I have found myself starting the massage session with the feet simply because I find it relaxes just about everyone. Even talkers take a break when their feet are being worked on.

When I heard that comment, it made me think about the feet I have touched over the years and if I have encountered any crusty ones. Hmmm...some tough guys have baby soft feet. Some delicate women have leathery feet. Crusty feet and heels...I've seen a few of those too.

Relax people; I'm not going to name names.

Sometimes all that is needed is a good pedicure, either at home or at a salon. There are a variety of creams, ointments, and lotions clients have mentioned using with varying degrees of success. However, if you have a rash, itching pain, a rash, oozing, etc., get to your physician or podiatrist. If your home remedy does not work, you may want to see your doctor just to make sure everything is okay.

Yes, I guess I have seen my fair share, however, for the most part I have just seen normal feet. Since my friend made that comment, however, the anticipation builds whenever I lift the sheet for a new client.
