Which of the following is pressure manipulation technique ?
Answer: B
The pressure manipulation is kneading, printed 'Kneeding'.
Massage manipulations are grouped as stroking (effleurage), pressure manipulations (petrissage), percussion (tapotement) and vibration. Kneading is the main pressure manipulation: the muscle is grasped and compressed against the bone or lifted and squeezed, which improves circulation and loosens tissue.
Clapping and pounding are percussion manipulations, delivered as rapid rhythmic blows. Pinching is a light lifting movement used with percussion and does not apply the deep compressive pressure that defines this group.
