Barefoot in the Park

(Upon researching this idea, I found that cobblestone paths have existed in China for thousands of years. [see link] Although that is baked, I could not find an entire park devoted exclusively to Foot Massage Therapy.)

This is a beautifully landscaped natural park with a smaller indoor version for use during severe weather, although no one will stop you from walking in the rain. Please remove your shoes at the entrance. Take a stroll down Metatarsal Lane. This is a squishy gel sidewalk, similar to the gel insoles one can buy for shoes. After you are feeling relaxed, sit down and soak your feet in the ‘pond’. This pond has foot massage jets and healing bath salts. The summer birds will serenade you. Linger as long as you like. Next, move on to the Air Massage. Located in a garden, you may recline in any of the chairs and put your feet up. Attached to the bottom you will find the air massage machine that turns on with the touch of a toe. It gives a percussive massage of warm air. Of course we must include some of these cobblestone paths, which meander all around the park. Be on the lookout for the purple painted park benches. If you sit on one of these, reflexologist midgets, dressed as faeries, elves and gnomes will pop out from the shrubbery and give you the most magical deep foot massage that you’ve ever had. Lovingly, they apply warm body butter and go to work to relieve any stress that you might still have. Spend the day, bring a lunch, and take care of those tired ‘dogs’ of yours.
