Tantric Massage

Sensual is a safe way to experience more health, comfort and pleasure in your body. It teaches you how to use intention, clear boundaries and choice to create a safe environment for your personal pleasure and empowerment. In sensual massage you learn how to use your breath and focus your awareness to increase sensations and deepen innate body well being.

Unlike therapeutic massages, sensual allows you to choose whether you are draped, nude or partially clothed on the table. You may elect to have your whole body massaged, including breasts and genitals, or not. You must clearly articulate your choices and give consent which exercises your personal expression of desires.

Although a sensual massage may include touching of the genitals and breasts, it is not to be confused with sexual massage. A sexual massage is about the expectation of receiving genital stimulation to sexually excite and result in sexual release. Rather, the intent of a sensual is about loosing expectations of any ‘result’ allowing you to feel and enjoy your body more in each moment.

The goal is to fully explore techniques of breath and mind-focus to bring a timeless and treasured awareness of body joy. You are coached in techniques that allow you to experience being relaxed and energized simultaneously. You enjoy deep and prolonged states of suspension from ordinary awareness. Whole body massage promotes sexual health, wellbeing and wisdom.

The person giving a sensual massage is a teacher, an educator, and not an entertainer or actor. S/he teaches men, women and couples techniques of receiving that increase whole body ease, acceptance and pleasure. You lose the need ‘to go’ somewhere, perform, or ‘do’ anything.

What is a relaxing massage?

Relaxation massage is essentially the same as a gentle Swedish massage that uses smooth, gliding strokes. The primary purpose will be to help you relax, and the therapist will probably move at a slower pace and use light pressure. During a relaxation massage there is less emphasis on working out serious adhesions or knots in the muscle tissue and the therapist won’t push your pain limits in order to get the muscle to release. Sometimes people even fall asleep during a relaxation massage.

Hot Stone Massage

Stone massage is one of the newer styles in the spa world, and it’s quickly become very popular. In this technique, warm stones are placed at pressure points along the back. Once they’re in place, the therapist gently presses each stone deeper into the back, which releases tension with the spread of heat.
