Help with Limb Twist in Hickory Stave

[Huntrdfk]

Hi all, I have a hickory stave that has been hanging around in the cellar for a few years, and all of a sudden the bowbuilding bug has hit again. I have made osage selfbows,(but not for five years or so), but this is my first froma hickory stave. I have it down to where it is floor tillered, but one limb especially has twist in it that I want to get rid of. I know I should use heat, but the steps are escaping me. Anyone here that can give me some direction?

Thanks,
David
