Subsequently, focus will shift to the soles of the feet. The therapist will use their thumb to create continuous circular motions, moving upwards and downwards as well as sideways. Next, while one hand holds the back of the ankle, the other hand will use moderate palm pressure to glide from the top to the bottom of the foot. For areas experiencing more pressure due to body weight (especially the heel), the therapist may use firm finger pressure to soften the area.
