Not necessary....
Just give parallel spokes on both side a hard squeeze with both hands at the same time.
Do for two rotations in between tension cycles, and one last time to verify wheel is really done.
For 32 holes wheels for example, do a 16 count as you are squeezing 4 spokes at a time - 2 parallel each side. That'll be two rotations...
