1. Wash your hands with warm water before massaging, then evenly apply an appropriate amount of lubricating oil to both the inner and outer surfaces of the auricle.
2. Use your index finger and thumb to grasp the lower part of the auricle, and gradually press and knead the surrounding tissues from top to bottom in a tapping motion.
