The therapist sits in the previously mentioned position and massages with the thumb applying vertical pressing and pulling (as far as the tissue elasticity allows it) the erector spinae muscles (paravertebral). The procedure is performed starting from the median region of the shoulder blades (D-4 approximately) all the way to the iliac crests. It is performed left + right simultaneously in at least 10 points with at least 2 repetitions. The therapist must change his position according to the region that is being massaged so that he can ensure a vertical pressing on each point. The dorsal sides of the therapist’s legs must be positioned over the patient’s thighs ensuring thus a proper balance.
