When you are going to give your girlfriend or wife a massage, you have to be slow, according to Susan Findlay, the director of North London School of Sports Massage. “Use the heel of your hand to make continuous fluid movements and work the whole length of the muscle,” Findlay says.
1. Prepare for Glory
Set the mood by lighting a bunch of candles around the room. Have a bottle of wine handy and then have your partner disrobe. You can amp up the romance by helping them get undressed if you want to turn this massage into a bit of foreplay. Once she’s nude, have her lie face-down on a towel or firm bed. Enjoy the view while you squeeze some of the massage oil into your palms and rub your hands together like the sly devil you are. This will help warm the oil, so when you touch her, she doesn’t shiver in all the wrong ways.
2. Be Smooth
With the warm oil all over your hands, start at her shoulders and then rub the muscles at the located the base of her neck and massage them tenderly, then work your way down each of her arms. Gently pinch massage, squeeze, and knead her skin. Pay attention to how she respond to your touch because if she winces or pulls away, lighten your touch because you’re going too hard.
3. Keep Going
Work your way back up her arms to her neck. Then work your way down her lower back using circular motions. Use this same movement on her arms, but don’t forget to include the use of the heel of your hand to massage larger areas of her back.
4. Finish Strong
When you end the massage with using the heels of your palms on her lower back, you’re able to work out any kinks and knots that she may have. The point of this process is to make sure she is relaxed and feeling great. The whole massaging process should take about 45 minutes, and if you’ve done everything right, it should lead to some extra fun times.
