Pressions appuyées


Explanation:
La pression appuyée :
Le massage par pression suppose que l’on repère des petits nœuds perceptibles et sensibles à la pression. Il s’agit de comprimer avec l’index ou le majeur, contre l’os qui se trouve en dessous, ou bien de les pincer entre le pouce et les doigts.
