How the massage should be made
Notes list
Note

- Chinese self-massage manipulations should be done in a relaxed and light manner. In the beginning, the duration of the massage may be short. The time can then be gradually prolonged as one's skill in doing the manipulations also gradually develops. Self-massage for preventive health care can be done once every other day at the beginning, gradually increasing this to once every day. Having chosen the appropriate location for local self-massage, one can lengthen or shorten the duration of the massage depending upon the time available and whether one is simply preventing disease or trying to treat disease and relieve localized fatigue and strain. In general, it is necessary to devote more time each session if one is trying to treat disease than to promote health and prevent disease.
