There's a steady rhythm to the kneading happening. He knows where all the muscles and tendons are and based on that by itself knows a little bit better which way to rub along a muscle or where to push on a tendon. He's mostly done with the calf nearest him and before moving to the other, he lifts this leg gently under her knee and attends to her hamstrings and such. 'Lots of benefits. Special benefits for the special ones.' He knows what she means but at the moment it's still sort of transitioning between that knowing-it-mentally and knowing-it-intrinsically. But she's told him several times in different ways by now, I think.
