Then place your hand's heel on your patient's Chess then three fingers on the bottom of its breastbone. Step 2: Then press down the chest to 1/2 inches and let it rise.

What do you call a man who gives a massage?
A massage therapist is the proper term for both men and women that perform professional massage therapy. The terms masseuse (for females) and masseur for (men) refer to people that perform massage but have learned under apprenticeship and did not go to a school. These terms also are not politically correct. Just like we no longer say stewardess, but fight attendant.

If they also have training in Asian modalities, they like to be called bodyworkers.
