define petrissage
a french term applied to deep kneading,
as distinguished from superficial kneading
what is the principle physiological effect of friction?
mechanical - to move blood and lymph
(increase circulation acting on the
venous blood and lymphatic vessels)

in passive touch, is elevation of the skin
temperature a physiological or therapeutic effect?
physiological
in passive touch, nervous irritability is physiological or therapeutic?
therapeutic
what is the reflex effect of friction upon the vasomotor centers?
1. increase blood supply to the skin which increases heat to the surface
2. increase activity of subdoriferous glands which leads to increased perspiration.
