Hand Massage

A hand massage is not only relaxing, it also stimulates blood circulation and warms the hand. The simple act of applying moisturiser or lotion to the hands is a massage in itself. It can be a great act of love for a loved one who has had a long day. Here are tips for giving a hand massage. Start with the dominant hand that might be probably used to perform harder work.

Relaxing hand massage

The massage must never be painful. Apply mild rubbing and pressing. The motion and direction of the massage must stimulate circulation. Gently rub the top of the hand and cover all parts. Then work on the tips of the fingers, palm, and the wrist. Do the same routine with the other hand. Avoid using oils that may cause allergies or irritations.
