This week I’ll show you how to massage your partner’s forearm by doing “stripping.”

Hold the partner’s arm and give a little shake to relax the arm. Draw imaginary lines between the wrist and the elbow. Squeeze and glide the forearm from the wrist to the elbow using your thumb. Since we’re gliding on the skin it’s easier if you use massage oil or lotion.

To increase the pressure, slow down and hook your thumb. To extend the time draw more imaginary lines between the wrist and the elbow and make more trips. Flip the arm and strip the other side. If there is an armrest use it to stabilize and relax the arm.

Happy Massaging!
