Knuckling

The knuckling movements are used with deep or light pressure. The sensation is wonderful for the person receiving the massage, especially when applied to the feet. These strokes are especially good on the soles of the feet, palms of the hands, shoulders and chest.

Knuckling increases the flow of blood to the specific area of the body, and releases muscular tension.

Make a loose fist with your hands and uncurl the fingers so that the middle section rests on the skin. Move your fingers in circular motion to give a rippling effect.

Do not use these strokes on the abdomen, any inflamed area, over delicate or broken skin, recent scar tissue or varicose veins.
