Sensual Massage

Sensual Massage is one of the ways for couples to get intact with each other. It is a way of massage which helps couples to reach the level of arousing before sex.

It is quite common for couples in most relationships to at times reach a sort of a stalemate, that is a point where intimacy and closeness to one another seems to loose its appeal. Or at times, at the beginning of a relationship, a couple may not know which would be the best way initiating contact and intimacy without seeming to be too forward or eager to get to the sexual part of the relationship. One of the most effective ways of dealing with this is through touch. Bodily contact, even in brief, is the ultimate breach of any barrier to intimacy but so as to be able to get past the intimacy barrier, the touch has to be more than a simple brush with the hand. It has to be gentle, soft and most importantly, arousing.

Nothing could achieve all three objectives than the act of a sensual massage. Sensual massage is a major breach to any barrier to intimacy because the gentleness of the act coupled with the close contact between to lovers makes the other person feel more comfortable and secure in the presence of the other person. In a sense, a sort of trust and unspoken understanding is built between the two. Once this has been established, the one receiving the massage will also feel more comfortable giving the other more access to both their body and their mind.

An important part of a sensual massage if it is being done in the bedroom between lovers or soon-to-be lovers is that both needs to take turn being the masseuse. This is because if only one partner takes on the role of masseuse, the intimacy may be achieved but it may still be in unequal proportions. In something like intimacy it is quite essential that both partners be on level ground. This is because it will enable them to not only know what the other wants but how far the other is willing to go. If the intimacy is unequal, one partner may accidentally cross over into territories that the other isn't so comfortable with and this is quite likely to lead to a withdrawal and return of the initial tension between the two.

When giving a sensual massage, it is important that the masseuse takes very keen interest in all that they are doing. Exploration is a good thing but it should be done slowly and gently. The slowness gives the other more time to adapt to what is happening or going to happen and it also gives the masseuse time to learn what is particularly appealing to the other by taking the time to note their reactions at every stage. This may be particularly useful in future sessions. Being gentle gives the partner the feeling that you are being gentle because you care enough not to want to hurt them and this will definitely enhance that feeling of security.

When performing massages, scented oils, soothing music, and a generally quiet atmosphere will help a lot in achieving the relaxation that is necessary for the massage to achieve its intended purpose.
