What technique should be used for muscle massage?

Insertion to origin
Left to right
In circular motion
Randomly

The correct answer is: Insertion to origin

Insertion to origin is the recommended technique for muscle massage because it follows the direction of the muscle fibers and helps to improve blood flow and range of motion. Additionally, using other techniques such as left to right or circular motions may not be as efficient or effective for targeting specific muscles. Massaging randomly may also result in uneven pressure or strain on muscles. Therefore, insertion to origin is the most suitable technique for muscle massage.
