"In this clip I'm going to be showing you looking at the toes, looking at the feet what I'm going to be doing with this part of my thumb. I'm not going to be using my thumb directly but I'm leaning in and I'm pressuring using the bottom part of my hand, just the bottom part so let's call it the Southwest corner and the Southeast corner. I'm pressuring in and using my torso, not using anything else and I am pushing off with my foot that I have on the floor. I'm just pressing in, pressing in, pressing in. I can go all the way down opening up the foot. I'm using my thumb as little as possible, it is all done with the bottom part of my thumb, the bottom corner and I can do that also coming down the sides. I can give it some circular motions like a locomotion train and do the same thing coming up on the heel."
