Approach the person from the front, let them know that you want to help and ask them "are you choking?". If they nod or respond as a "yes" then you let them know that you are going to perform the "J-Thrust maneuver". You approach them from behind, wrap your arms around their abdomen. Making a fist with one hand, you then face the thumb portion of the fist back toward their body/your body and cup your other hand over the outside end of the fist (pinky finger area). You will then let them know not to resist the motion and reassure them that you are helping. You will proceed to do regularly timed "j thrusts" which consist of you pulling your fist, with the help of your other hand, back into their abdominal area (just below the zyphoid process) as well as an upward motion toward their chest cavity, thus creating a j-shaped thrust.
You will continue to do this until the blockage has been released, or until their status changes in any good or bad way
