Reference:
"Le pressioni locali si basano sul principio di comprimere una regione tra le due mani, oppure tra il pollice e le ultime 4 dita di una sola mano, oppure tra la mano e un piano sottostante. Le prime pressioni debbono essere eseguite il più vicino possibile ai gangli linfatici della regione interessata, mentre le successive, vengono esercitate verso la periferia.
Si tratta della famosa manovra a tampone assorbente, nella quale si dà alla mano una forma convessa e la pressione inizia dal palmo e termina alle estremità delle dita. Le pressioni locali esercitano un’azione d’ordine circolatorio e degli effetti sedativi sui muscoli."

I'm afraid I don't know. Hopefully the Ita ref. will help you or any experts in massage techniques out there find the correct answer.
