"Hi! On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Jean Hurley from Siegels Day Spa in Cottonwood, Arizona and we’re giving you some tips and techniques today on pinpointing muscle groups.

Using the fingers and the thumb, starting on the sides of the wrist bone, you can feel the attachments there like little cables, little rubber bands. Coming across the arm and it attaches right here.
