I'm a male therapist, what should I do if a female client has pinned her legs together?

Do I say nothing and just work her legs as best I can (this is my current action)

Do I politely ask her to adjust her legs? If so HOW do I say this without it sound creepy?!

Manually move her legs? This freaks me out.

I have always struggled with this, and even asked some female clients that I've been treating for a long time, "What's the best way to phase it?" and even they couldn't come up with anything!

I can't help thinking she's probably

A: unaware she is doing it and would understand.

B: She's not comfortable, so suggesting moving could make things worse.

Any suggestions?
