"In this clip we're going to continue wrapping our client. We're just going to put a fleece blanket over her. Because our product was warm when we applied it, and the mylar foil traps the body heat, we're not going to have to apply an electric blanket. Plus, you wouldn't want to do that in a wet room because, I mean, common sense. We don't want water and electric. During this time where Lizzy is wrapped up, I'm going to perform a scalp treatment to relax her, and just really enhance the entire experience. So, I'm going to walk to the head of the bed, we're going to take her cap off, and we're going to start with circular movements. Is my pressure Ok? You always want to ask your guest if your pressure is Ok. People have different sensitivities. Some people don't like a lot of pressure, and some people really like that firm touch. We're going to perform a pulling movement. As you can see, my hand is wrapped around her hair, and I'm just gently tugging. We're also going to do some pressure points, compressions. And lastly, my favorite, the forehead compression. This is totally relaxing. "
