Another form of treatment, known as Rotary Motion has been found to
be very efficacious, by a number of healers. It consists in a circular rubbing
movement of the hand and fingers (as above described), over the affected
parts. The movements should always be made in the direction of the
movement of the hands of a watch, and never in a reverse direction. This
movement produces activity of the cells, and is useful in cases of sluggish
functioning, etc.
Another form of treatment is known as kneading, and is found valuable
in cases of stiffened muscles, rheumatism, etc., in which the trouble is local
and not organic. Kneading is accomplished by grasping the muscles or
tissues, and “working” them against the adjacent surfaces. It is composed of
three different forms, viz., Surface Kneading, Palmar Kneading, and Digital
Kneading.
Surface Kneading is practically a “pinching” movement, and consists in
grasping the skin firmly between the thumb and forefinger, and then lifting it
up a little, and then releasing it and letting it fly back to its normal condition.
The two hands are used, alternately, the one picking up the skin as the other
drops it, the surface being gone over in a systematic manner. This is quite a
stimulating treatment, and is very beneficial in cases of poor circulation, etc.
Palmar Kneading is performed with the whole hand. The healer grasps
the flesh, or muscle, with the palm of his hand, with fingers close together,
and the thumb out. Do not use the thumb, but grasp the flesh between
the palm of the hand, and the fingers, the lower part of the palm, called
the “heel” of the hand, and the fleshy part of the thumb being used in the
movement. Hold the flesh firmly, and do not allow it to slip. Knead deeply,
so as to reach well into the muscles and flesh. The muscle or flesh should be
thoroughly “worked,” and yet not sufficiently to produce soreness. Do not
use too much force, but be gentle and yet firm. Use the hands alternately.
There are a number of variations of this movement, which will “come” to the
healer as he practices. He will feel that his hands are “alive,” and he will feel
instinctively the best way to impart that “life.”
