10 Back Massage Tips

These 10 back massage tips will assist you in sharing the holistic benefits massage offers in addition to turning on your lover. Stress relief, increased flexibility, improved sleep quality and mental clarity are just a few of the side-effects of a good back massage. Nothing quite prepares someone for sex better than a relaxing rub down. It's also the perfect excuse to shed some clothing. 

1. Make the offer. Simply offering a back massage to your partner will make her feel special. She will understand that her comfort and well being are important to you. This positive emotional response will make sex a likely outcome.
2. Vary pressure. Switch off using the heels of your hands with your fingers. Varying the pressure of the massage will work out the kinks in her back while keeping her awake. You want your lover to be relaxed but not so much that she falls asleep.  
3. Include the butt. This is a part of the body that tends to be overlooked making it a prime massage zone.  It's easy to access since your mate will most likely be lying on her stomach and it's very unlikely that anyone would refuse a little attention down there. 
4. Use long sweeping strokes. Start at the lower back and use flat hands to sweep up and over the shoulder blades. Go slowly and continue this butterfly motion for a few minutes. You are sure to hear some "ah's" with this move. 
5. Unhook the bra. This isn't just a sneaky attempt to get her naked, it really does help you to give a better massage. Trying to force your fingers under a snug undergarment ruins the mood, the flow of your motion and is just plain annoying. Hint: use those excuses if she asks what you are doing. 
6. Keep her warm. One of the factors in getting women aroused is temperature. Keep her warm and you have a greater chance of transitioning the moment into sex. 
7. Don't forget the neck. The base of the neck including the hairline is packed with nerve endings. Squeezing this area with your thumb and index finger will release tension while feeling great. 
8. Get naked. There is no need for clothing during a massage. If you are both naked with your bodies rubbing together you are almost guaranteed a steamy night of sex after your appetizer of a back rub. 
9. Use lightly scented oil. Aroma therapy experts say that rose oil is an aphrodisiac for women. Pour a little warmed rose scented massage oil onto her back before you start. It will feel heavenly and arouse her senses, too. 
10. End the massage with kisses. It can be awkward to end a back massage when you are both in the moment. Kissing her shoulders and back lightly are a perfect transition from relaxation into sex.
