What is erotic massage?
Erotic massage is an excellent way to spice up foreplay or enjoy the closeness of your partner. Everyday stress and fatigue can lower libido and affect the quality of your sex life. One way to reduce these negative effects is through a relaxing, aromatic bath, followed by an erotic massage. This type of massage serves three key functions: firstly, it helps you relax and forget about daily problems; secondly, it improves blood circulation in the skin, increasing its sensitivity to touch; and thirdly, it is a source of arousal in itself.
How to start an erotic massage
An erotic massage should be a special event that occurs occasionally. Focus on creating a sensual atmosphere, paying attention to the details. Sexy lingerie, dimmed lights, and the glow of candles are essential. Also, ensure you have relaxing music to calm your thoughts from the day.
Massaging the back and neck is crucial, especially if your partner is tired. Start with these areas. Ask them to lie on their stomach with their arms at their sides. Apply a bit of oil to your hands. Begin by gently kneading and squeezing the shoulders, then move to the neck. Many people enjoy light neck bites, which can evoke intense sensations, similar to an electric current flowing to the brain. Try this method on your partner!
After thoroughly massaging the upper back and achieving full relaxation, focus on the lower back. The massage here should be more gentle. Stroke your partner’s skin from the shoulder blades down to the buttocks, using circular motions outward from the spine. If your partner likes it, you can also lightly scratch, pinch, or even nibble the skin. Finally, run your fingers down both sides of the spine, from the neck to the tailbone, gently and sensitively.
Foot massage
Foot massage is another step to complete relaxation. The feet have points connected by nerves to many parts of the body, including erogenous zones. Stimulating these points can bring relief and pleasure to both you and your partner, strengthening the bond between you.
Ask your partner to lie on their back. Take one foot in your hands and warm it up with vigorous, circular thumb movements. Then, firmly but gently, drag both thumbs from the small toe along a straight line to the heel, kneading the skin. Repeat this move from each subsequent toe. Finally, massage the ankle – grab it with both hands, placing three fingers (ring, middle, and index) on each side. Perform circular movements a few times in one direction, then the other, and finally figure-eight movements. Rub some oil into the foot and place it under a warm blanket. Repeat all the steps with the other foot, ensuring your partner’s deep relaxation and comfort.
Buttocks massage
When massaging the buttocks, remember to be gentle and communicate to ensure comfort and pleasure. Use smooth, circular motions, gradually increasing pressure to relax tense muscles. Focus on each buttock individually, taking your time to massage different muscle areas. You can also give light slaps. The key to a successful massage is being attentive to your partner’s reactions and adjusting techniques to their needs and preferences. Finally, focus on the tailbone area, where nerve endings are located that stimulate the prostate and testosterone production. After this part, you can move on to massaging the front of the body.
Vaginal massage
Properly performed vaginal massage can give a woman unimaginable pleasure. The touch alone can bring her to orgasm before intercourse even begins. Focus on the massage itself, not what follows. This sensual act doesn’t have to lead to intercourse or orgasm, providing incredible relaxation.
Once you’ve set the right mood with a full-body massage, move to the most important part – massaging the external genitalia. When your partner is relaxed, ask her to bend her knees and spread them apart. Sit or kneel between her thighs to comfortably conduct the massage. Comfort is key for both of you. For added comfort, you can place a pillow or towel under her buttocks to help her maintain a comfortable position for a longer time.
When everything is ready, you can begin the massage:
Starting the massage:
- Place your hands on her knees and slowly, gently move towards her vulva, sliding your hands along the inner thighs.
- Stop at the groin area and start kneading the hollow in this area with clenched fists. At this stage, you can allow for a slightly more intense touch.
- Open your hands, place them on the inner thighs, and return to the knees, then move back to the groin and repeat the massage. Repeat this sequence several times.
Pubic mound massage:
- Start by gently stroking this area with an open hand.
- Then, gently knead the skin with your fingertips.
- Observe your partner’s reactions. When her breathing quickens and pleasure begins to show on her face, slightly increase the pace.
Outer labia massage:
- Start by stroking her vulva with an open hand.
- Knead the labia with your fingertips, first one, then the other, and then both.
- Remember to be gentle to maintain the mood.
Inner labia massage:
- Gently spread the outer labia and focus on the inner ones.
- Touch them with care and tenderness.
- If your hands become dry, reapply oil.
Clitoral massage:
- Place your thumbs beside the clitoris and gently knead the skin with the utmost delicacy.
- After a few moments, move to massaging the clitoris itself, gently rubbing it with your finger.
- If you notice your partner is highly aroused, you can increase the intensity of the caresses.
G-spot massage:
- You can insert a finger into her vagina and proceed to massage the G-spot.
- However, avoid quick movements as this area prefers slow stimulation.
- Slow stimulation will provide her with intense sensations.
If you want to finish the massage with penetration, make sure your partner is fully aroused and ready for this step. The key to a successful vaginal massage is gentleness, communication, and observing your partner’s reactions, allowing you to adjust the intensity and techniques to her needs and preferences.
Chest massage – How to do it
Start by gently stroking the chest, evenly spreading oil. The movements should be long and fluid, beginning from the center of the chest and moving outward toward the shoulders. Then gently massage the collarbone and sternum area, using circular finger motions to relax tense muscles.
Focus on the breasts, performing slow, pressing movements along the muscles, paying attention to your partner’s reactions. You can also gently massage the nipple area, using a light, circular touch that is both stimulating and relaxing. It is important to maintain gentleness and gradually increase intensity, observing how your partner responds to different techniques.
Continue the massage by smoothly transitioning between different areas of the chest, avoiding focusing too long on one spot. This helps maintain a balance between relaxation and stimulation. You can finish the massage by returning to gentle stroking motions, ending the session in a soothing and pleasant manner.
Oil and massage candle
These are your main allies for an erotic massage, allowing your hands to glide over the body, providing wonderful sensations. Importantly, massage oil leaves no traces on the body and completely dries! No matter what oil you use, always remember to warm it in your hands for a more pleasant massage.
As for candles, they are great for erotic massage because they are hot. Imagine dripping hot oil onto the back, letting it slowly trickle down, and then massaging it into the body, combining the pleasure of warmth with the pleasure of touch.
Feather and blindfold – additions to the massage
Incorporating a feather and blindfold into an erotic massage can greatly enhance sensations and the sensual experience. These additions help focus your partner’s attention on touch and make the massage more exciting and mysterious.
Blindfold: Gently put the blindfold on your partner, explaining that it aims to increase their sensitivity to touch. The lack of vision will make other senses sharper, increasing the intensity of sensations.
Feather: Start the relaxing massage with gentle hand strokes to get your partner used to the touch. Then take the feather and begin to gently glide it over various parts of their body. Start with the face, gently moving the feather along the jawline and around the lips. Move to the neck, collarbones, and then to the chest. Slow, light feather movements across the chest, abdomen, and sides of the body will create a pleasant tingling sensation.
Occasionally switch from the feather to your hands to surprise your partner with the variety of touch. Use your hands for gentle, circular movements on the chest and abdomen, then return to the feather to continue the subtle caresses.
The feather and blindfold work perfectly with chest and other body area massages. During the chest massage, use the feather for gentle, sensual movements around the nipples and along the ribs. The lack of vision will intensify the sensations, making each touch more intense.
