Sensual Massage 101
In our culture, we sorely lack in physical contact with each other.
In other countries, especially the Mediterranean, touch is very
important. It doesn't always mean that the person who's touching
wants sex. It's not considered sexual harassment. Humans need that
caring physical contact, on a daily basis. That's what's so wonderful
about massage. It allows us to experience that sensual world of
touch without the pressures of having sex. Of course, there's nothing
wrong with ending a massage with sex, but what's important is it
doesn't have to end that way. Massage is a wonderful way to get
close and sensual with someone you care deeply about. Below are
some different techniques to help you expand your massage repertoire.
First, we must cover the basics:
- The best place to give a massage is while your partner is lying
on a table or the floor, padded with some blankets. The bed is
usually where most massages happen, but it does not provide enough
of support for your partner's back and may also put unnecessary
strain on it.
- A massage is best if given to nude person. If your partner
does not want to be nude, then a bathing suit or underwear is
good too. A massage is more sensual and erotic when you can both
feel skin touching skin.
- Since a massage is best without clothes or with as little as
possible, the room should be heated and free from drafts. A temperature
of 70 degrees or above is usually good. Just make sure you don't
make it too hot either.
- Make sure you have some type of massage oil
(we recommend
kama sutra massage oil). A lubricated body
massage feels much better than a dry one. Lubrication means no
friction and easy glide.
It's always good to keep your massage oil warm. Cold oil and hands
can not only kill the mood, but also cause discomfort. To do this,
just keep the bottle of oil immersed in a bowl of hot tap water.
And rub the oil into your hands, so they stay warm too.
- If your massage will include the
male genitals then oil, water or silicone based lubes and even the
massage oil itself are all okay. A water or silicone based lube is okay to use on
women's genitals. Oil based lube and massage oils are not recommended
if anything will be inserted into the vagina, i.e. fingers, toys,
etc. because oil does not flush out easily, which can promote
bacterial growth resulting in a yeast infection.
- Make the massage room a sensual environment. Dim the lights,
light some candles, turn on some sexy, relaxing music (rainforest
soundtrack, harp music or a soft classical album), and most importantly,
turn off the ringer on your phone (house, cell, beeper). For a
successful massage, you must be free from distractions. It's all
about you and your partner becoming one with each other.
- Before starting any massage, make sure you are relaxed, yourself.
There's nothing worse than an uptight masseuse giving a very rough
massage.
Okay now that we have our supplies and our room set, let's talk
about some techniques. The best massage is one that focuses on the
entire body. For ease of instruction, we'll focus on the separate
areas of the body. For the purpose of this article, your partner
is lying on his/her stomach.
The neck and shoulders are a great place to begin because an awful
lot of tension is kept there. The sooner you start to work out those
knots the more relaxing your partner will be for the rest of the
massage, resulting in more enjoyment. Apply a dime-size drop of kama sutra massage oil into your palms and rub your hands together to make sure your
hands are warm, then fan your hands out on his/her upper back and
align your thumbs about an inch away from each other on either side
of the spinal cord. Using tips of your fingers and thumb, not your
nails, gently grip your partner's shoulders and knead the skin.
But make sure you grab a good amount of skin as to not pinch. And
don't do it hard and fast. The key is slow and gentle. If you don't
use gentle pressure, your partner will tense up and by pulling and
pushing against a tense muscle, you could bruise it. So take it
easy.
Another good technique on the neck is to place one hand on either
side of the neck and apply a small amount of pressure. Then move
your hands in a circular motion. Remember slow and gentle circles.
As your doing this, work your hands up behind your partner's ears
and back down to the shoulders.
At this point you can work your way down your partner's back. Now
the back is the center of any massage because it is composed of
three large groups of muscles. Continue this circular motion with
both hands on each side of the spine. And spread out your hands
and the area you cover to include the sides and lower back too.
Now try some light feathery touches all over the back, sides and
lower back. Use both hands, one on each side of the spine and rub
in a diagonal motion from the spine out. Use small, quick strokes.
After that lightly rub your hands all over your partner's back.
One key to a good massage is after you do anything that may be a
little on the rougher side, do something light, smooth and soft
to connect all those areas you just worked on. Now you're ready
to tackle the buttocks. Using the inside of your forearm, slowly
rub one butt cheek at a time in large circular motions. When finished
with that, make a fist and roll your knuckles, one by one, over
the the triangular bone at his/her lower back. This is another area
that holds an awful lot of stress. So take care when applying pressure.
Kneel at your lover's side, apply
kama sutra massage oil on your hands and grab his/her
ankle and knead with your thumbs and fingers all the way up his/her
leg. Do not use too much pressure behind the knees because it could
injure sensitive veins. Once you reach the thighs, rub your entire
hands in a circular motion and knead the skin. Just be careful,
the thighs can be a highly erogenous zone, so if you want to finish
your massage, make sure you take care.
Now here's a very sensitive area of the body. Massaging the feet
can sometimes be like massaging the soul. Some people can also be
very ticklish, so it might do you good to find out beforehand, so
your lover doesn't start flailing about when you accidentally tickle
him/her. If your lover has very ticklish feet make sure you use
a firmer grip and apply more pressure. Most of the time, a lighter
touch is what drives people crazy. If he or she is super sensitive,
then you might want to avoid the feet altogether.
If you decide to massage the feet, here's some techniques. Grab
his/her foot, soles of feet facing you with thumbs on soles and
fingers on top of feet. Move your thumbs in a circular motion while
applying pressure to the balls of the feet. Then massage each toe
by lightly squeezing it between your thumb and index finger, then
gently pulling on each one.
The best way to end a massage is by massaging your lover's head
and face. This brings it full circle and also brings you closer
to your lover, allowing the two of you to be intimate with each
other. A head massage can be wonderfully relaxing and arousing.
Of course, to massage the head, you don't need any kama sutra massage oil.
You might actually want to have a towel handy so you can wipe your
hands off before the head massage. Start by gently stroking your
fingers through his/her hair. If his/her hair is long make sure
you don't get your fingers stuck in knots, so be careful. Using
the tips of your fingers, gently knead his/her head, the whole head.
Work your way over to the temples and use the tips of your first
two or three fingers. Gently rub in a circular motion. Then lightly
run your fingers across his/her entire face. Using your finger tips
lightly tap his/her face, like raindrops were falling from the sky.
With your thumb and first finger, rub your lover's earlobes and
ears. Then lightly run your hands over his/her eyes, eyebrows and
lastly lips. If you want to get more intimate, gently kiss your
lover on the eyelids, tip of nose and lips.
I have provided you with some basic massage techniques. There are
many more techniques for you and your lover to share. There are
also many ways to massage the genitals.
