A bowl of warm water that has a touch of her favourite bath essence (not urine) in it. Soak the feet, gently rubbing the undersides with a pumice Pat dry on a soft, warm towel - keep the warm towel covering the foot that is yet to be massaged Apply a copious quantity of lotion to your hands and warm it between them as I find using cold lotion on the foot unpleasant Using a firm grip (never a light one as it tickles and this does anything but relax a person if they're ticklish) begin to work the lotion into the foot Long, firm thumb movements on the ball/heel of the foot, with knuckles of your hand on the arch, Place a palm of each hand on either side of the foot, do gentle 'twists', using the heel of one hand to push the side of the foot away from you while pulling it to you with the heel of the other hand Once you have finished the massage and you'll know if she's been enjoying it by the sounds she makes, apply a pair of cotton socks to her feet as she won't want to walk on the carpet/flooring with slipper feet. Good luck
