Position to the next stroke, so go ahead, yeah, transition here.
See how she keeps nice good contact with her hands.
And she kind of changes her speed a little bit at the top, and here she goes right
into, what's this stroke called? That's the
petrissage stroke. Pettrissage, right.
So she's petrissaging and milking, probably
one of the tightest muscles, you think? The traps. She's got the traps going here.
Okay. She's using a full milking stroke. Yeah, a lot of people have that.
They, the muscles like get real tense here. Yep.
Yep, and now look. She found a little knot, so she's actually going
to do a little friction. You can see how she slowed down
and she's pinned the tissue now. And she's really working
It's not. No, I saw that. I saw how it moved. How do you tell?
she could feel it. Look at it. Do you see it? Do you see it going up? No, it's not that.
Are you on a knot right there? Yeah.
See it, see it, see it, see it. See how it went down. Put it. Put your hand right
here near your thumb. Okay. No. Pin. Okay. Do you feel that?
Sorry, but I thought that was a bone. No, not a bone. That's the
So, right there. You just
So when you find one, you slow down. Slow it down, okay, okay. Exactly, what is that?
Yup, it's fossal adhesion. So it's all the fossa in the tissue or the
that of
surrounds all the muscle fibers. And all the muscles
get stuck together and cause a little knot like that. So you put pressure
on it, like that. You do the friction. The friction.
Okay, and then. And, she also should be communicating to him, saying "Is that okay?"
Yeah, she did. Also, there are images online that like you can only go a certain direction
actual certain muscles, or something like that. Yep, but with friction it's okay. We can cross fiber
friction massage.
We can parallel friction. We can do lots of different ways for this one. Can you,
can you, can you fork?
I call it a fork. I don't, can you fork it like, yep, like that,'cause that's what I did? Yep.
When you see it online, you don't want to go in between. So go ahead and
flush that. So now she spent a few minutes,
she can flush it by effleuraging it. I remember seeing it online, you don't want to go in between the fibers
too much something like that especially with deep.
Deep stuff, because you want to go with the thing. You want to go with the fibers, especially.
Not like, not like sideways
you know. Yeah we do, do that, though. Is this how the
Isn't that a lot more dangerous? Would that cause a lot more injury.No, we want, sometimes we wanna to separate those
fibers to get more
circulation in there, more blood flow in there, more oxygen in there. Believe it or
not but
so now she's going a little bit deeper and she's using a soft fist
on what's that muscle? Does anyone know?
The trap. Trapezius. You also want to be careful. You also don't want to terrify her
terrify her by, by getting too, getting too, like too deep in between
the space between the fibers, though, because you don't want to tear anything. Believe it or not we get pretty deep. It depends on the person.
Well, I don't know. From what I saw on the video, they use every
really careful with this, so you make sure you can't go against like this
certain way. So now she's going into the rhomboid, so why don't you just circular friction
with both thumbs. Okay.
So the rhomboids. Rhomboids. The muscles that
