  • Start Gentle

    Begin with lighter palm pressure and increase only with positive client response.

  • Body Mechanics

    Use body weight through palms and forearms — arm strength alone causes practitioner fatigue.

  • Contraindication Check

    Screen for pregnancy, recent surgery, and blood clots before floor stretches.

Safety Notes

  • Repetitive strain is common — cross-train and stretch daily.
  • Stop session if practitioner feels sharp joint pain.
