What is left handed pizzicato and how is it indicated?

How do you loosen a violin left handed?
Take your left thumb, where tension is often stored, and tap it gently three times on the neck. Then place your first finger on the fingerboard and tap three times again. Continue this process with each finger on each string. Practice pushing your fingers down without gripping in your thumb.
