ARMS MASSAGE:

Though you may feel tempted to ignore your arms, you will find that a thorough massage can help to release tension elsewhere in the body, especially in the shoulders

Smooth your whole arm by stroking from the wrist to the shoulder. Stroke firmly as you move up the arm and then glide back and repeat

Massage Steps:

1. Do a kneading action on the arms, working rapidly rom the wrist to the shoulder adn back witha firm, squeezing movement. Do this more quickly and briskly than usual in massage, to invigorate each arm and shoulder in turn, rather than soothe and relax the muscles. Starting at the wrist, oil the arm and top of the shoulder, making contact with the whole of the arm.

2. Swiftly rub up the outside of each arm using small movements to really stimulate the circulation. Repeat in an upwards direction each time.

2. Reach around to the back of your neck this time, grasp your elbow once again and pull to the 
opposite side, which stretches your upper arm and further opens your shoulder joint. For an 
extra stretch, bend toward the side you’re pulling with at the same time.

Massaging the arms is enjoyable for both partners. For the receiver it relaxing and enjoyable. For the giver it is satisfyingly easy and effective.

Being by placing your partners hand alongside your chest. The relieves your partner from holding their arm in the air. Knead the muscles of your partners arms using both hands. Using your thumbs to knead the muscles of the arms is best.

Stroke and gently squeze down the arm, from the wrist to the armpit, while supporting the arm with your other hand.

HANDS MASSAGE

Our hands are one of the most overworked parts of our bodies and will benefit enormously rom self massage throughout the day. People who work with their hands in a repetitive way such as keyboard practise regular hand massage.

Just use your thumbs and rub your friend's hand in a circular motion throughout their palm. Then grab and pull each finger--but not too hard. Finally, massage the area in between his thumb and pointer finger in a circular motion.

To stimulate circulation, rub your palm over the back of the hand and then repeat with the other hand. This movement is very similar to washing your hands and it does not only stimulate circulation, it also warms the hands.

Massage Steps:

1. To release stored tensions and improve circulation, start by squeezing between each finger in turn with the thumb and index finger of the other hand.

2. Stretch the fingers by interlocking them and gently pulling them downwards.

3. Sandwich your partners hand between your own for a few seconds. Using your thumbs, massage the palm of the hand.

4. Stroke the back of your hand, pushing firmly up toward the wrist and gliding back gently. Then squeeze the hand all over, pressing it between your palm and your fingers.

5. Finally, with the thumb, make a firm circling motion on the palm of the other hand. This both squezes and stretches taut, contracted muscles and should be a fairly deep action. Use firm pressure to avoid tickling and irritating movements.

6. Turn your hand over and support the back with your fingers. Do firm circular and static pressures with your thumb, working all over the palm and around the wrist.
