back is exposed because this provides access to the patient's back.
The third step is to assess the skin to ensure that there are no indications
of a problem that is a contraindication for having a back rub.
The fourth step is to warm the lotion in your hands because warm lotion is
more comfortable and supports muscle relaxation.
