Wringing

WRINGING is an effleurage stroke across the fibres of the muscle and is used mainly on the thighs and can be used also on the calves if they are quite muscular.
Description: The hands are flat on the muscle with thumbs beside the fingers. They then work in opposite directions surrounding the limb and slightly lifting the limb at the beginning of the ‘up’ part of the stroke. It is used to loosen the muscle fibres.
