Tense Left Foot

[John Doe]

I have had two recent clients (both men), who seem unable to relax their left feet! The right foot is fine, but when I come to work on the left foot, they just can't 'give' it to me and let go. One of the clients even falls asleep and this still happens - he is aware of it, but cannot do anything about it. Does this actually have any meaning?

I've come across "abnormal" tension in left feet and calves before...often it was due to huge amounts of time spent driving - left foot constantly on/off the clutch pedal.

If you loosen up the calf muscles, the foot will then often relax.

worth a try?

Have you looked at any Chris Stormer ?
According to her Tense left foot is dispute with Female(s ) or with the female principle .
How does this sit with your knowledge of the clients?

I have the Chris Stormer book and it is fantastic - suggest you get it 'language of the feet'. Oh you will have to help me out coz i lent it to another therapist the other day so can't look this up! I think the left foot refers to the past and the right to the present - have i got that right? Anyway, recommend the book, tells you all sorts about the size of the toes, what they mean, markings on the foot and just about everything. VERY interesting and very true.
