Baby hates being touched?

My 14 month old hates being touched... Except cuddles, kisses being picked up etc .
She screams and flails around for everything else e.g. washing hands, wiping face, putting on shoes, taking temperature. Doesn't let doctors/nurses do basic non invasive obs without freaking out. Doesn't let us take her hand to guide hers to do something. Is this normal? She is quite strong willed. It's hard work, and a bit embarrassing. I literally can't take her to get her feet measured.

I also have a strong willed little one. For the feet measuring, poo into a next and ask for their measuring guide to take home and do with the child yourself. It's handy when they go up shoe sizes too
