Our hands are one of the most over used parts in our body. From doing simple
tasks up to accomplishing a complex work, we always used our hands. That is why,
our hands need attention and care after a long day of work.
Hand massage can be a quick way to relieve stress and tension. According to
some studies, having a hand massage once a day may help reduce the pain
associated with arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome and neuropathy.
Moreover, now that we are in the middle of this pandemic, one way to better
our moods, to lessen our anxiety and to improve our sleep is by doing a hand massage
(PubMed Central, 2011).
In this lesson, we will be learning the process on how to give a hand massage.
Applying hand massage with our loved ones will surely enable us to help them in
reducing their stress levels in this trying time and in making them feel more relaxed
and refreshed from too much work.

reflexology points that are connected to the organs in our body. Let us say your client
