Before
long
you
should
be
able
to
use
almost
your
entire
strength
in
exerting
pressure,
and
feel
nothing
but
beneficial
results.
But
when
doing
this
it
may
be
well
to
change
the
position
of
the
hand
slightly
for
each
application
of
pressure,
rather
than
to
repeat
such
strenuous
treatment
so
many
times
in
one
spot.
The
idea
is
to
exert
pressure
throughout
the
entire
region
of
the
abdomen,
chest,
sides
and
back.
It
may
occur
to
the
reader
that
this
form
of
exercise
for
the
vital
organs
has
a
certain
distant
similarity
to
some
features
of
massage
treatment,
known
as
deep
massage.
However,
this
method
is
much
more
vigorous
than
any
form
of
massage,
and
is
of
a
character
to
build
a
degree
of
real
internal
strength
that
cannot
be
attained
through
massage
of
any
kind.
And
it
has
the
advantage
of
being
convenient
for
self-application.
After
a
time
you
may
be
able
to
originate
pressure
movements
of
your
own.
One
of
my
friends
writes
that
he
has
used
a
similar
idea
associated
with
a
vibratory
motion.
He
slightly
agitates
the
hand
in
different
directions
while
pressing
inwards.
This
is
well
worth
a
trial,
and
it
partakes
very
much
of
the
nature
of
massage.
Another
good
practice
is
to
inhale
a
deep
breath
and
then
while
holding
this
breath
apply
pressure
all
along
the
central
portion
of
the
abdominal
region,
from
the
breastbone
downwards,
from
ten
to
twenty
times.
Then,
without
exhaling
the
breath,
draw
in
all
the
additional
air
you
can
and
repeat
the
pressure
movements
six
to
twelve
times,
after
which
you
may
be
able
to
take
in
still
more
air.
One
should
be
careful
not
to
carry
this
holding
of
the
breath
too
far.
At
the
first
signs
of
discomfort
the
breath
should
be
exhaled
quickly.
