"Along with the back, the legs, the feet, everything has nice sim lines and what I'm going to be doing here is thumbing her sim lines on her hand. Not only in the palm but also in the back of the hand. Now sim lines in the hand literally run across through here and down each finger to each finger tip. So that's what we're going to be doing and I'm literally going to start in the middle of the back of the palm, or the bottom of the palm and I'm going to gently press down with my thumb and then kind of move it out and start slowly working my way down her fingers. Start back in the beginning and you're going to gently press down the hand and this is very relaxing. Be careful if your client falls asleep not to wake them up with too much of a jolt. Now when I'm going down the middle one I'm crossing thumb over thumb and then just gently moving down the fingers. Giving a nice little meta rub, turn the palm over and starting on the back and again it's the same lines. Crossed here and down the fingers so here we go. Just gentle, there's, you feel bones in the back of the hands so be very gentle. Just giving enough, enough pressure to release the energy. That feels good for them. It shouldn't hurt. It should never, never hurt. Again the middle line you're crossing thumb over thumb. All the way down. Thumbing the sim lines. Your thumbing the sim lines on the hand"
