Tantra massage is a massage technique that requires a great deal of trust, openness, and acceptance between the person receiving the massage and the person giving the massage, as it is a very intimate massage technique.  During the tantric massage, the person receiving the massage should lay on his/her back and place a pillow under his/her head and hips.  The massage will begin by massaging areas like arms and legs before advancing to the stomach and more intimate areas.  It is important for the person receiving the massage to practice the appropriate breathing techniques in order to increase his/her ability to achieve a level of deep relaxation during this massage.  Following the completion of this tantric massage, the person receiving the massage should feel a greater awareness of their body physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Benefits

One of the underlying beliefs in tantric massage is that the body is capable of healing itself.  Therefore, tantric massage attempts to help the body heal itself by achieving a heightened awareness of its senses and a deep state of relaxation.  Tantric massage also focuses on stimulating the seven chakras that are believed to be located along the spine.  When these chakras are stimulated and working efficiently, they also improve the body’s ability to self-heal.  Because of the intense nature of tantric massage, individuals who utilize this technique may find themselves feeling more connected to the world around them.
