weird nerve reaction in back

[NightmareDisco]

So, I'm assuming that most people pet their beardie's shoulders and back. Recently, if I rub Nemesis along her spine near her shoulders or tail base, her body kinda jumps like a nerve reaction. I have never noticed this before on her. She reacts just as we would if something poked a nerve on us. Is this normal and I have just never noticed it? It doesn't seem to hurt her...

She may have hurt herself, could she be in pre-shed stages without showing?

i rub nagini along his spine too, all he does is flatten his tummy and gives me this look. i think he's ticklish? lol.

Her whole back is about to shed. I had considered this to be a possible reaction. You think that may explain her reaction?
It does seem sometimes that she is ticklish

I am positive it is the pre-shed. All my dragons get very sensitive when they are in pre-shed to shed.
