    You will only use one hand at a time when working on a client's foot.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    When working on a client's foot, it is not necessary to use only one hand at a time. In fact, it is common practice to use both hands simultaneously to provide a more effective and balanced treatment. Using both hands allows for better control, pressure distribution, and the ability to target specific areas or techniques. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The hooking technique is useful for homing in on a particularly small reflex and working on parts of the foot where the skin is tough.

    The explanation for the answer "False" is that the statement suggests using the left hand to work on the left foot, which is incorrect. The correct way to work on the left foot would be to use the right hand to hold the toes straight and work on them.

    Correct Answer
    A. Walk
