- medium pressure.
- scented massage oil: coconut oil prepared with local flower such as champaka, akar wangi (vetiver) and pandanous leaf is traditional preparation; however coconut is heavy oil not suited to everyone and it is not always used at spas.
- long sensual strokes, working the length of the muscle to relieve tension. All sequences finish with upward strokes toward the heart.
- rolling skinbetween thumb and forefinger to spark up the nerve endings and increase blood flow.
- circular thum movements for the same.
- pressure on the points in the foot and hand reflex zones.
