What is the first method of application in the HFRG system?

In this system, the approach is to start with the least intrusive option to gain control and reduce risk. The first method of application is touch pressure, meaning you apply controlled, brief contact to specific points to guide the subject’s movement and establish a safe level of influence without causing harm. This step communicates intent, helps create a predictable response, and sets up the opportunity to move to the next steps. Verbal commands are used after to clearly state expectations and reinforce compliance. If resistance continues, stabilization provides the necessary control to safely restrain or reposition. Striking is reserved for imminent danger or when other methods have failed to establish control. Starting with touch pressure keeps escalation in check while aiming for a safe, effective outcome.
