Feeling the Soft Tissue Response - 1
 
In order to feel the soft tissue response you have to use your sense of touch in a brand new way.
Start by placing the full surface of one hand on your thigh or your tummy. I'll call this hand that you are using now the "testing hand". Skin to skin contact would be best for now although in the future you can do this through a layer of clothing.
With a very slight motion very gently squeeze and release the whole surface of the hand and fingers against the skin surface of your thigh or tummy. I mean very slight...
You are now feeling the quality of resilience of the soft tissue under your testing hand...
