@@PrettyGirlRock1115Russell's Teapot. _"Many orthodox people speak as though it were the business of sceptics to disprove received dogmas rather than of dogmatists to prove them. This is, of course, a mistake. If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time."_ - Bertrand Russell, 1952
@PrettyGirlRock1115 In other words, the burden of proof is on the people claiming that Chakras exist, or that there is a connection between areas of the foot and the human body.
Fern, I just wanted to say I think you have the most calming and relaxing voice on the internet. Simultaneously it's always interesting to learn about different subjects, my Mum studied reflexology too so I can connect the dots so to speak. Have a lovely day!
I saw your video and clicked on right away. How lovely those socks are, very nice and help us to understand more about reflexology. Fern you are helping so many people relax, me being one of them. You are so precious …..love your wonderful soothing voice. Everyone watching give Fern a thumbs up and subscribe, she is amazing !
@@FernsHolisticASMRPeople don't "make their minds up" in a vacuum. They do it after critically evaluating the information they've been given.

@@apokalypthoapokalypsys9573 you can in fact make up your mind about whether you find walking across gravel pleasant or not. Go do it right now. And then you’ll have your answer for yourself.
Another fantastic video, Fern! I particularly love how you explained as you traced along the different regions on the reflexology socks. You have inspired me to try reflexology :)
I used to "practice" this for my grandma, grandpa, aunty, mom, and my dad. It was a great memory. In my country we have fine outlook on chiropractor and reflexology.
Absolutely adore your channel Fern, your calm voice, warmth and empathy. I am really concerned about some of the language used in this video though, especially the description of reflexology as a science and the implication that it could be used in place of actual medicine to treat illness, particularly that a person with depression might forgo a visit to the GP.
Thank you for your comments and I really do appreciate the feedback. There will always be some controversy around certain holistic therapies and the argument around whether it is a simple science or not will continue. The brief introduction to reflexology, the benefits of reflexology and the suggested problem areas are taken from my reference texts. I do also state that Reflexology is not a cure and that Reflexologists do not diagnose illness nor do they practice medicine. I would always complete a consultation with a client and recommend a client to get advice from a GP where needed. I will take your comments on board and reflect how I can make this clearer.😊
I've seen some socks for sale that have the dorsal view included. Would be interested in your opinion on them and their accuracy if you got a pair for a video.
Thanks for letting me know, I will look out for them as the ones in this vodeo were a gift. I found these worked well as a learning tool and a bit of fun! 😊
Yes I agree I am so glad I found these as a useful learning method. Also I realise I was very fortunate when I completed my courses, in that it was a local college and am still in touch with some of my fellow students to this day! I hope you do find something one day! 😊
I was hospitalized… and now I’m home! Finally I would get some good sleep now! Fern… it is possible for me to do reflexology on my own feet? Like With no help of another person? Thanks fern
Sorry to hear that and I hope you are feeling better. Yes you can do self reflexology. Probably easier doing hand reflexology on yourself than foot reflexology but if you are flexible enough it is possible. I would recommended purchasing a text book as a reference guide on self reflexology from somewhere reasonably priced like amazon or world of books. This way you have a reference tool to guide you. Good luck with this I hope it helps you!😊
My boyfriend is always so busy and stressed, the only time he calms down is when I massage him - did a lovely face massage on him yesterday and he was snoring in minutes. 😂 Now I’ll try and learn how to give him hand and foot massages x thank you for sharing your knowledge and resources with us Fern 🤍
Doesn't help im a little high and sleepy but until thr point I the video where you say the display on the soul of the foot is sock, I'd thought it was an animated overlay done in post and I thought it was so advanced
It’s kind of like when your masseuse starts putting crystals on your chakra points. You know it’s not real, but she believes in it and that’s kind of nice.
Also, a massage is a massage so you’re getting all of the benefits of that regardless (also also the cultural aspect is neat)
Agreed
How do you know it’s not real though we are sentient beings who‘s existence has yet to be explained who says other things don’t or can‘t exist either?

Babe, wake up - no actually fall asleep - Fern just posted!
😂❤️
Lol good switch up there

Thank you so much for your kind words. They have given me a lovely boost! 😊
Which area is the feet?
Great comment

That's in the hands.

Imagine reflexology was actually real. One barefoot walk across some gravel is either gonna throw your body all out of whack or be a wondertreatment.
I prefer to let people make up their own minds once given the knowledge to do so!

I wonder about that too. If applying gentle pressure on specific points can have an affect what does walking on them do? I just don't understand.

Imagine if massage therapy was real. But nope it’s just the same as rolling on gravel
Like the socks, was easier to follow the difference areas 🤗
and as always so soothing to listen to your voice Fern ♥️
Thank you! 😊
Another fantastic video, Fern! I particularly love how you explained as you traced along the different regions on the reflexology socks. You have inspired me to try reflexology :)
Thank you so much! I am glad I have inspired you as reflexology is a wonderful holistic therapy.😊
Your voice is so soothing. I awoke in the middle of night and you are helping me to relax my mind & body. Thank you for this wonderful video.
You are so welcome! 😊
Those socks are fantastic, and so are you! ❤
Thank you! 😊
Really clever tool. Thanks for sharing all of these great Reflexology ideals and techniques.
My pleasure! 😊
You know it’s bs, right?
thank you for using socks i appreciate it sm
Thank you for watching, so glad you enjoyed this! 😊
I stepped on a rock and my kidneys exploded
Well I did ask for comments!😊
I used to "practice" this for my grandma, grandpa, aunty, mom, and my dad. It was a great memory. In my country we have fine outlook on chiropractor and reflexology.
Glad it brought back fond memories for you! 😊
Such a relaxing video, thank you Fern 🌿
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
At first I thought, ‘Blimey, Fern’s good at drawing,’ until it occurred to me that they were socks.. 😂 Yet another great video. Thank you 🙂
Thank you so much, I wish I could draw like that! 😂
Day 1 of asking for ear reflexology:
Please please please can you do ear reflexology 🫧🍵🪷🦢🪻🐚
It is on the list! 😊
Wonderful as always, thank you! X
Glad you enjoyed it!😊
I think my favourite part was the voice over introduction 😊
Thank you! My first attempt at using that technique! 😊
I'm so ticklish on my feet I wouldn't be able to keep still 😭 I love your videos ❤
Thank you! ❤️ Give it a go as you would be surprised how relaxing it can be! 😊

You have a nice voice. Very relaxing.
Good video :)
Thank you so much 🙂
Love this video and this channel Fern. Hope you're having a great day :)
Thank you! You too!😊
I always always love your videos! I’m commenting enough words to boost the video in the algorithm❤❤
Thank you so much for doing this, it is much appreciated and will certainly help! 😊
This was wonderful thank you Fern ❤😊
Glad you enjoyed it!😊❤️
Akupressur is done with just preassure what you mean is acupunctur
Hi Fern! Where did you get the gold pointer, please? Thank you in advance!
It was a gift, but you can get them from Amazon.😊
Damn. I wanna apply for being the model in one of those videos
Thank you Fern❤
You're welcome 😊

I need those socks. Very good video.
Thank you, I think they are good too! 😊
Ohhh always happy to see a new video posted by you 🥺🤍 right in time for sleep!
Hope you enjoyed it!😊
The constant tickles 🙂
Another amazing video
Glad you enjoyed it!😊
Where can I get those socks??
They were a gift, but I think Amazon do them. 😊
@@FernsHolisticASMR Thank you! I'll go have a look online!
I really like the socks! I oh-so wish there was a school near me for reflexology and other such things.
Yes I agree I am so glad I found these as a useful learning method. Also I realise I was very fortunate when I completed my courses, in that it was a local college and am still in touch with some of my fellow students to this day! I hope you do find something one day! 😊
I could never stay still like that😂😂😂
I clicked out of curiosity, but now I'm wondering just how much damage this is going to do to my algorithm.

Massage is so good for reducing stress levels and good on you for trying all this for him! 😊
Awwwwwwww tingles ❤ D stressing !!!!!!
I just bought these socks
Where can I buy these socks?
These were a gift but you can get similar on amazon! 😊
I would just be so ticklish. Idk how they just lay there. 😂😂
Not for long as the relaxation feeling takes over! 😊
The most replayed on this video is such a long part of it.. crazy
What are you using for a tool to trace?
It is a reflexology tool I got off Amazon and comes out well in the video! 😊
@@FernsHolisticASMRthank you! I found it!
Nothing like a bit of calming nonsense
Why is it that every reflexology chart I see is different from one another?
The main areas should be similar but sometimes it is the way they publish the actual picture that is the most confusing! 😊
I don't think nerves work like that
The fact the socks have different toe holes scares me
Lucky model! I need some massage and reflexology so bad. Im starting to think i have
stiff person syndrome.
If you do suspect this then I would strongly advise you get medical advice first. I hope you feel better soon!😊
Is she working on a dead person? Cuz that would make me so ticklish
I think Melissa is used to it by now! 😊
Doesn't help im a little high and sleepy but until thr point I the video where you say the display on the soul of the foot is sock, I'd thought it was an animated overlay done in post and I thought it was so advanced
😂
Bro tf are these toe socks? Why does each toe have its own glove?? I just know that’s not comfortable
