The speed should be one finger pressure/breath and you should breath according
to your client's mood. I have done this and the whole massage took 4 hours.
The Wat Pho Style is the preferred way of most Asians but I have been using the
Northern style to accommendate my western clients who prefer the softer and

efforts. Have a wonderful time and share all the loving/healing energy to this
world. Jyh Ming (Jimmy)
