TOP 10 MASSAGE TIPS


1. The person being massaged should be as comfortable and relaxed as possible. 2. Use essential oils. 3. Light candles – it’s more relaxing so more pleasant. 4. Keep the room at a comfortable temperature. 5. Start with the back. The massage experience tends to be best when you start by massaging up and down the back. 6. Vary your massage strokes. Begin with up and down strokes on the back, then move on to a circular motion, using larger circles near the top of the back and smaller circles near the lower back and hips. 7. Vary the pressure and speed for truly great results. 8. Afterwards, the massagee should try to remain relaxed and take deep breaths. 9. Drinking plenty of water


afterwards to help remove toxins. 10. Consider a relaxing bath at the end of the massage.
