My older patients’ feet have carried them thousands of miles and they hold the most fascinating stories..✨📚
One patient recently shared a beautiful memory of her grandparents, born in the 1880s, who always stressed the importance of caring for and properly cleaning their feet. She described how it was considered a real treat to fetch their metal bathtub which was stored above the outdoor toilet, carry it down the garden path, and carefully half-fill it with boiled water from the stove where they would soak and relax until the water turned cold.
What a beautiful memory!
