Body Massage Ideas

I thought I’d write an article on learning full body massage. I’ve given it a go myself and my partner is very impressed by my new skills! I can’t go into all the techniques fully but this will give you a good idea on what to do. Once you have done the first two easy steps it’s just practice from there and in a few weeks you will be able to give a full body massage as well as the next person.

Step one: - setting the scene for that perfect body massage.

Clear away all the clutter, it may sound crazy but a tidy space creates a tidy mind which will help your new subject feel calmer and more relaxed.

Step Two: - Picking the right music.

If you want to give the best full body massage you can, all you need to do is find some soothing music with a holistic feel of mountains or oceans taking your subject far from their day to day stresses.

Once the scene is set and the music is playing nicely at the right volume, you can start giving a full body massage. I used oil at first as it was already at home and is perfect for getting into the flow as it makes sliding your hands up and down someone’s back a lot easier.

There are a few techniques to use when giving a massage:

1. Knuckling – grabbing gently onto the massage area but instead of using your fingers to put the pressure on use your knuckles on the tops of your fingers.
