Front of the Leg

Circulation
This stroke encourages blood flow in the legs. It can serve two purposes and feels great either way.If you are suffering the effects of a strong workout this stroke can be performed deeply to rid the muscles of lactic acid. When the lactic acid is removed, much of the soreness will be alleviated.If you are performing a sensual massage this stroke can be used to flow blood to the genitals. Increasing blood flow to the pelvic region is great for males and females.The stroke involves squeezing the muscle tissue to push blood up the legs. The return stroke in part two is much gentler and is done down the outer side of the leg.


Kneading Above the Knee
The muscles above the knees can become very tired. They are quite strong and respond well to deep massage. Spend some time kneading these muscles and your partner will surely respond.

Bent Leg Muscle Rotation
In this movement you will first bend your partners leg. By bending their leg you facilitate a new position for massage.When your partners leg is bent, stead their ankle with one hand while the other hand massages the front of the thigh (shown in the photo) or the calf muscle. Use a smooth movement that pulls your massaging hand over the muscle tissue.

Pumping
In this move you exercise the leg in its full range of motion. You should do his after you have relaxed the muscles of the leg through massage.Grasp the ankle as show and raise the leg from the outstretched position. Both the knee and hip should bend. Move the leg until you feel resistance. Flex each leg through its range of motion 3 times.
