A tantric massage β or a holistic sensual massage as we call it in our conception β is more than just a simple massage. It is an opportunity for personal development. Through a tantric massage we learn to better perceive, respect and accept our body. We learn to listen to our feelings and see them as our helpers in the course of our lives. A female body is like a sponge β it perceives and absorbs all situations.
Experiences that hurt while remaining unexpressed cause reduced sensitivity of the body. For example, somebody hurts you with his or her words or behavior.
It collects unexpressed tears or anger somewhere. A woman that holds back her emotions reduces her own pleasures. She suppresses pain, but at the same time she necessarily has to suppress joy too, on the level of body and soul. The conscious loving touches of a tantric massage can help to release such feelings. Her body can automatically feel much more then, and become more sensitive.
And finally, her ability to enjoy pleasure grows. For women, the power of erotic experience is in direct proportion to the level of her ability to open and deliver herself. A loving, conscious and present touch of the masseur helps very much. Open and respectful ambience helps a lot too.
The ritual itself includes many interesting elements that awake every single cell of the body and address its sensuality. The skin is activated through an oil massage and other types of touches, harder or softer, or through caress. Usually it includes furs, feathers and hot washcloths. There is a short conversation prior to the massage.
