[edit] Steps

Loosen your hands up. Shake them out, wriggle your fingers about.
Place the thumb of one hand on the opposite palm with your nail pointing towards your little finger.
Work up from the heel of your hand up and over the top of your little finger, using tiny caterpillar-like movements and applying light pressure with the top of your thumb. Repeat with medium pressure and then once more with quite strong pressure.
Turn your hand over and, using the same thumb movement, work from the base of the nail down to and over the wrist, again 3 times.
Repeat this whole sequence four times so that the whole palm and all of the fingers and the thumb have been treated. Then do the same sequence again on the other hand. This is called zone walking; you’ve just been doing reflexology!
