SOME SPECIFIC MASSAGE APPLICATIONS

GENERAL BODY MASSAGE

For general well-being, enjoy a daily once-over light massage. It has a
wonderfully soothing and relaxing effect.

NECK
Massage down from the base of the skull, on either side of the spine, for a few minutes.

SHOULDERS
Temporarily relieve minor muscle tension by lightly massaging the shoulders
outward from the base of the neck for 4–5 minutes.

BACK
Massage along length of spine and shoulder blades to help temporarily relieve
minor muscular backache. The multiposition handle has been specifically designed
for these areas.

ARMS

Stroke smoothly up from wrist to shoulder on inside and outside of arms,
including palms, for 4-5 minutes.

LEGS AND FEET

Massage the ball and heel of the foot to temporarily relieve tired, aching muscles.
Use even, upward strokes over all the leg surfaces.

SPORTS MASSAGE

Ideal for pre-sport massage to loosen and prepare muscles for activity. Use to aid
in relief of sports injuries such as aches, pains, strains or cramped muscles.

Use your Body-Flex® massager as described in these instructions and you will
enjoy the benefits and relief you would get from a masseuse.
