INTRODUCTION

Touch. We love to touch. We are indeed tactile, sensual beings, lie perceive the world through our senses, and un¬affected by -what wc-receive. Sight, sound, taste, touch, swell - of all the senses, touching perhaps affects us the most deeply.

Touch communicates, brings closeness, restores and arouses. From infancy, we use touch to find out about the world, to explore, reach out and confirm.

Through touch we are able to affirm or transform our relationships, find out information and notal or hide ourselves. Touch tells us who we are, it gives us a sense of ourselves, allows us to make contact and feel we are not alone. We use touch for pleasure, to bring relationships closer, to comfort and accept. Instinctively we feel people as they walk into a room -touch brings that contact closer, makes it real.

Our senses and feelings can give us balance and satisfaction. They are an antidote to a thinking, technical -world. In order to find such a balance, we need to turn our focus to our senses, re-examine our surroundings, and see how they make us feel. We need to have an environment where we can feel, let go freely, where we can open up emotionally, receive plea¬sure and relax. Taking care to have around us objects that we like, inspiring shapes, softness, and curves. Paying attention to color, materials, scents and sounds, for each sensation conveys something to us.


In exploring the sensual world and our responses to it, we naturally increase our use of touch. Touching our surroundings, the people we encounter, those we are close to, and those we love. As lovers we are particularly vulnerable and open to each other - touch can give immense pleasure or cause physical pain.

The way that we, as lovers, touch defines the bond between us. Through sensuality we explore and find delight in each other, heightening both arousal and awareness. Pleasing each other, we bring the other closer, increasing our sense of lov¬ing and being loved.

Massage celebrates sensuality. It is an experience of giving and receiving, of exploring and opening to each other. It is a way of pleasing and relaxing, releasing stress mid tension and creates a profound feeling of well-being. By giving mas¬sage we are caring for each other in a very real and loving way. In getting to know each other better, we increase the trust and sharing vital for a loving relationship to thrive.
 
Massage can be used for simple relaxation - as a way of easing tired muscles, calming the mind, uplifting the spirit and restoring our natural energy. Having the ability to do this for our partner gives a special satisfaction, a feeling of confidence and warmth. For our partner, allow-ing a caring touch to discover and ease away stress and tensions is a statement of openness and their trust in us.


Intimate massage combines basic massage techniques, designed to relax and keep muscles healthy, with added sensual arousal and the spontaneity of loving touch. With sensual massage, each one pleasures and satisfies the other, creating an intimate, loving, two-way flow. There is no right way to do it, it depends on a shared experience. If our attention is on our partner, we will be concerned only with their happiness, and a tender sensitivity will develop. The beauty of a sensual, intimate massage is that it enhances our relationship, by increasing knowledge, vitality and joy.
