Tapotement is a rhythmic, percussive massage technique used to stimulate muscles and improve circulation. It is often employed during a massage session to invigorate the body, increase lymphatic drainage, and enhance relaxation. This movement is particularly effective in areas of muscle tension or fatigue, and is typically used towards the end of a massage to promote energy and alertness. However, it should be applied carefully to avoid discomfort or injury.

How do you do effleurage petrissage and tapotement in head massage?

Gently, with finesse, as Mariano Racobado is known to say. Efflourage would generally involve running the fingers gently through the hair in specific directions. Petrissage requires the knowledge of and ability to sense the tonic state of the underlying muscles so that they can be specificallly addressed with a gentle depth. Tapotement would involve a gentle tapping of the fingers over an area either requiring inhibition or tonic increase, depending upon the style of tapping.
