EFTA00008120 | EFTA00008195 Chapter 10: All the Right Moves 149 Goodplaces to shake The limbs respond exceptionally well to shaking. However, if you shake the head, you're coming dangerously dose to a chiropractic maneuver, which Is a definite no-no. Larger areas such as the back and thighs respond well to vibration, and you can rock the whole body, especially when your partner is lying face down. Get into the rhythm: Tapping This is the type of movement that you see movie actors performing when they think they're doing some really authentic massage on-screen. It also seems to be the preferred move for overweight Russian men giving massages In bathhouses. Yes, I'm talking about the famous karate-chop family of massage maneuvers, otherwise known as tapping. This family of moves is based upon one major concept: getting pounded on feels surprisingly good. This Is true, as long as you tap judiciously, with the right amount of pressure. To achieve seasoned tapping prowess, practice with the three basic hand-shapes for tapping: the open fingertip, the karate hack, and the loose fist. All of them are done with "soft" hands because, after all, your intention is not to attack ninja-style but to increase circulation and soothe sore muscles. The secret to all good tapping is the rhythm. If you're not a natural born drummer, try slowing your tapping down until you reach a rhythm that you can sustain easily. It's not speed that counts, but consistency. ✓ Fingertip tapping: This is the lightest tap, excellent for faces and the top of your head. A lot of cosmetologists use this move to bring extra circulation to the cheeks, creating that "rosy glow" look. Tapping is shown in Figure 10-10a. ✓ Karate hacking: Make sure to keep the hands limp and not treat your partner's body like a board you're trying to break. Don't hack directly on bony areas, of course. Keep your wrists loose and let the edges of your flopping fingers do a lot of the hacking for you, as shown in Figure 10-10b. ✓ Loose fist pounding: You have to be extra careful when using your fists for tapping, but they definitely come in handy if your partner is one of those NFL linebacker types who doesn't seem to respond to normal massage manipulations. Don't tighten your fists completely when tapping, and resist the temptation to do a Rocky-Balboa-side-of-beef-in-the-freezer move. See Figure 10-10c. EFTA00008195
