17. The Five Points of Silence Around the Chest
The little fingers of both hands are placed on the edges of the rib cage
about two inches from the tip of the sternum, and the thumbs are extended
as far up on the chest as possible. The remaining three fingers fall evenly
spread in the space between the thumb and the little finger. A vibratory
pressure is exerted with all five fingers of each hand (fig. 485).
18. Pressing the Midpoint Between the Rib Cage and the Crest of the Hipbone
The little finger and the fourth finger of each hand rest on the crests
of the hips while the thumbs rest on the lower edge of the rib cage on
each side. Slight pressure is applied on those two points. The index and
middle fingers automatically press points midway between the crests of
the hips and the edge of the rib cage (fig. 486). |
