Se sentir vs sentir in statement/question

Statement: ...Je me sens beaucoup mieux !  Question: Tu sens une différence ?

Why does the question use sentir and not se sentir (ie, "Tu te sens...)?  Is it because the statement is about feeling better ("internal" feeling) and the question is about feeling a difference (perceiving something)?  Would "Tu te sens mieux ?" be a correct way to ask if someone is feeling better?
