Since we adjust on the bottom part of the gums, now I can do the top part of the gums. I can do either separately or I can do it together. I'm just going around where the teeth are, where you can feel the bones of the gums. I'm going towards the jaw again and doing the circular motion on the jaw with all 4 digits on both sides.

These are all just very gentle gliding strokes."
