Tantra massage incorporates the essence of Shakti or energy and is way different from traditional massage therapies. It works towards removing blockages that millennials face and involve physical, mental, sexual, emotional, and psychosomatic needs.

Most people think that Tantric massage is all about having the best orgasm. However, it is not the ultimate goal of the massage.

The benefits do include the sacred practice that gives you pleasure. But it should be considered as a by-product and not the ultimate goal.

How is the experience of Tantric massage?

To begin with, Tantra massage needs you to not wear any clothes. Your entire body is massaged with lukewarm oil and it aims to awaken your erotic energy. It spreads all through your body and gives you a blissful experience.

The process invokes several reactions in your body, inclusive of emotions and thoughts. Every reaction is welcome and you can ask questions if you want to understand the masseur’s work better.

Every type of Tantric therapy doesn’t include the recipient’s genital. But originally, it is an essential part of the therapy and gives you great results.

Before opting for Tantra massage, they will ask you if you want to massage that part of your body. If you agree, the masseur uses his/her fingers gently and respectfully to proceed with touching the inner part of your yoni (vagina).

According to Adinatha, the Tantra retreat helps you experience a loving, respectful, and healing touch. Moreover, it doesn’t need you to do something in return, give anything back, or react in a certain way.

The atmosphere is crucial

A skilled masseur will have good knowledge of energy. They will know how to sense it, how to control it, how it works, where the energy must be brought and how to get there. When you’re the recipient, you will find the practitioner bestow the power of energy on you.

2. Goal of healing

As per the East Asian Cultures, healing is the primary goal of Tantra massage. It can be through an orgasm, but that isn’t the primary goal, healing is. Tantra yoga works like a restorative and remedial treatment that releases blockage and uplifts your soul.

3. Conservation

Tantra massage converses your sexual energy and doesn’t waste it. It is used for the greater good and you get optimum benefits from it.

Is Tantra massage for everybody?

Tantra massage is for everybody who is willing to immerse into a blend of spiritual and sexual wellbeing.

Anybody who accepts this form of Tantric mantra can opt for it. This form of massage is not just a therapy but it heals you from all kinds of traumas and blockages. It gives you new energy and perspective towards life.

The primary focus of Tantra massage is to improve mental wellness by crossing physical boundaries to make a person relax.

This form of therapy cannot be done quickly and you must carefully choose the place you want to get the massage from. The experience should be relaxing, safe, comfortable, and in an undisturbed environment.

The goal of Tantra massage is not only giving pleasure to the recipient but also accepting or receiving it in the right way. Tantric massage can take you into a trance where your physical boundaries dissolve.

You forget all your problems, worries, and nothing in the world is important to you at the time.

Tantra is a supposed to be a path of enlightenment just as you know Zen or Yoga philosophy to be. While most massages keep you covered under a towel, Tantra massage allows you to have your genitals massaged. Women are given the Yoni (vagina) Massage, while men get the Lingam (penis) Massage.

How to give your partner Tantric massage?

People who are not comfortable to get a massage done by someone else can try this therapy with their partners. If you’re single, you can even try Tantric self-massage techniques to give yourself the pleasure you expect from this therapy.

Tantra massage may seem intimidating to you, but it a heavenly experience to feel. You also find your partner transcend their physical body and come to a state when you both exchange sexual tension. Read the following points to know how you can try a tantric massage at home:

1. Take out enough time

As stated above, Tantra massage is not a quickie experience. It is not one of those quick sexual interactions that get done within 10 minutes. It is also not like a chair massage when you’re getting a manicure or pedicure done. Both the partners need to have enough time to go through the therapy in the right way.

2. Set the mood right

Play Tantric massage music on YouTube to set the mood right. Even massage parlors play Tantric music to make the atmosphere bring in the sensual vibe.

When you play it for your partner, it not only helps you start the therapy but also continue it on the ‘right track’. Apart from the music you need to be in an undisturbed environment, de-clutter the room, add scented candles and dim the lights.

3. Don’t feel pressurized

Don’t try Tantra massage if the only objective is to get or give an orgasm. There are many techniques that may or may not lead to that, but it is not the ultimate thing.

The massage therapy is not done to reach this goal and doesn’t stop even after you’ve had it. It is also not about having or maintaining an erection, it is about relaxation and letting the rest of the world be.

4. Make the area comfortable

Once you’ve set the mood right, you need to ensure that the place you perform the massage is comfortable and safe. For example, you might plan to do it when your roommate is out of town. Make sure he isn’t possibly returning that night and you’re absolutely secluded to do the therapy and there are no chances of stopping in-between.

5. Not just the genitals

So far, you’ve read that Tantra massage is not just about the genitals. You might think what more is it about?

Well, this massage therapy includes your abdomen, chest, nipples, hands, fingers, thighs, feet, and toes. Before you start massaging the yoni or lingam, you have to comfort all these places.

Tantric massage is much gentler compared to Swedish or Deep Tissue massage for the body. The receiver must lie face down with arm at their side, while the partner/masseur gently massages every body part.

They start from the hand and massage every finger. Slowly, they work up the shoulders, neck, back, and then the hips. Next, they move towards the lower body and massage the legs. The therapy ends with the genital massage.

6. Don’t forget to breathe

It is important for the receiver to breathe well during the massage. It helps them attain the ultimate goal and feel every move deeply.
