So if anyone else is on the bench waiting you get the treatment also.
The whole trick to doing a PROPER pedicure and not tickle the person
is to apply enough pressure to get past the ticklish stage, but not so
much pressure that you can cause discomfort or pain.
My husband who is EXTREMELY ticklish can tolerate my pedicures,
except for at the top of the ball (just below the toes area), nothing
I do there will prevent him from being ticklish in that area. But I HAVE
to give him regular pedicures because his heels crack so bad that he
has literally shredded 3 bottom sheets. Just today I had to do a patch
repair on a sheet (because I am tired of buying new sheets).
Louise I have the same problem with DH. I cut the toes and the top of old socks off and DH sleeps with them on at night. It covers his heel area. It looks like the ankle braces that you can buy at the drug store and slip on to give your ankle support when it is hurt. It works perfectly, no more shredded sheets. I also have him put this stuff called heel tastic on at night. It is like a stick deoderant in a round container. I got it a walgreens. There are several different brands that you can use. There is also a lotion for cracked heels that works well. If used every night it should greatly improve the condition of his heels.
