Having a relaxing massage does not have to complicate your life: if you are one of those who thinks it is very bad to give massages and you feel that you can hurt your partner if you give him one, do not worry: if you do not cause pain you are not doing any harm. Not just anyone can give a relaxing massage, it’s a matter of following the advice we give you.
Massage is also a time to connect, to do something for your partner to make him/her feel better and to indulge him/her. With a relaxing massage, not only will your partner feel good about the effects of the massage, but you will also know that he/she feels good about something you do yourself.
Here we leave you with a summary of how to perform that relaxing massage you want:
– The movements to perform a relaxing massage should be slow, and continuous; never make a very drastic change of movements, as the surprise factor can stress the muscles, and is not what we are looking for. It is important to remember that you should never take your hands off during a massage.
– It is not necessary for the massage to be too intense. You are not struggling with old tensions that are built up, you are just looking to bring your partner to a state of tranquility with the massage.
– Use breath perception as a tool to evaluate the quality of your relaxing massage and to help you with certain massage maneuvers.
– Perform the massage with positive thoughts. Remember that if your partner asks you to give him a massage, it is because he has had a difficult day and wants you to do something to make him feel better. If you massage with negative thoughts in your head or thinking about your own problems, you may pass them on in the massage and your partner may feel worse.
– Never cause pain. That’s the main rule when doing a relaxing massage. Pain means you are hurting, and pain will cause your partner extra tension.
– Use relaxing oils or creams to help you perform the massage. This will reduce the friction on your skin and make your hands slippery. But be careful: do not apply it directly to the skin. Warm up the oil or cream a little by rubbing it between your hands, and then distribute it over the whole area you will be working on.
– The massage is also a question of creativity and work of all the muscles of the back, so if you have any other maneuver you want to do in your relaxing massage, do it.
