'he kneads' is the definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'use arms in a way' is the wordplay.
'in a way' indicates an anagram.
'use'+'arms'='usearms'
'usearms' with letters rearranged gives 'MASSEUR'.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
