A scalp massage during the shampoo is given with the:

cushions of the fingertips
metacarpus
rubber gloves
carpus

The correct answer is: cushions of the fingertips

A scalp massage during the shampoo is given with the cushions of the fingertips because they allow for a gentle yet effective pressure to be applied to the scalp. This helps to increase blood flow and promote relaxation. Option B and D are incorrect because the metacarpus (back of the hand) and the carpus (wrist) do not provide the same level of pressure and dexterity as the fingertips. Option C, rubber gloves, is not typically used for scalp massages as they may not provide the same level of sensation and control as bare fingertips.
