I love both!!!

I have no professional training whatsoever, but I do like to give massages. I haven't had anyone complain yet, so I guess I do okay!

But I really, really like to get massages. Mmmm. Such a nice feeling.

Edited to add: There's no reason the two (talking and massaging) need to be mutually exclusive -- unless that's preferred by either person. While I kind of lose my train of thought when getting a massage and usually zone out after a while, a little light chit chat is always nice too.

And, some people just are naturally gifted at it, as my mentor/instructor said to me ( I was 19 when I learned that touching bodies is a way to give to another human being, a way to "tune in" to them).

I like to include a massage in my sessions, especially if the appointment is over an hour.  Using intuition, (and if the client is into it), I try to address his kinks and knots, starting out rather therapeutic, and (with the help of appropriate music), building up to a crescendo of very erotic, sensual, tantric-like massage....body to body, slipping and slithering up and down, front and back...

Most men really like it, some are just not interested in massage (it's easy to figure out what they want, and sometimes I just ask)

There are occasions when the massage is after playtime, and that's a great way to relax after some very heated physical activity...especially a neck rub, scalp massage, and soft facial.  

I have thought of conducting short teaching sessions for providers who are interested in learning some wonderful techniques, but so far haven't had enough response here in MN...

Just a thought.  It's all good.  

We could all use a little touch-everywhere (if you know what I mean)

It is really nice to start with a soft sensual massage. It gets me going all the time. Thanks for your reply. xoxo
