Set Clear Intentions

Before you even step into the massage space, take a moment to reflect. What are you hoping to experience? Is it pure relaxation, the release of emotional tension, or perhaps a journey into your own sensuality? Clarifying your goals can transform your session from a simple massage into a deeply meaningful experience.

Reflect on Personal Goals

Start by asking yourself what you genuinely want from this experience. Is it simply to relax, or are you looking to explore sensual energy? Some come seeking physical relief, while others crave emotional healing. Maybe you are curious about exploring new sensations or wish to release stress from daily life. Whatever your reason, knowing it helps you communicate with your masseuse and ensures the session is tailored to your needs.

Communicate with Your Masseuse

Our masseuse Alara gives this advice:”Don’t be afraid to share your boundaries or your desires. The more I know, the better I can create a space where you feel safe, respected, and completely at ease.”

Once you have clarity, share your intentions with your masseuse. They are not just a skilled massage therapist but a guide through your journey. If you are curious but a little nervous, say so. If there are areas you are uncomfortable with being touched, make that clear. This open communication builds trust and allows the masseuse to create an experience perfectly suited to you.

Embrace Vulnerability

A tantric massage is not just about physical touch; it is about connection. To truly enjoy the experience, allow yourself to be vulnerable. Be present, release any self-judgment, and let go of expectations. The more open you are, the more profound the sensations you will experience.

Physical Preparation

Now that your mind is ready, let’s focus on your body. Physical preparation is essential, not just for comfort but for ensuring you are in the right state to fully enjoy the massage.

Personal Hygiene

This may seem obvious, but good hygiene is a sign of respect for yourself and your masseuse. Begin with a warm shower before your session, letting the water cleanse away any stress or negative energy. Choose a mild, unscented soap to avoid overwhelming your masseuse with strong fragrances.

“Please avoid strong perfumes or colognes,” says Chloe, one of our new masseuses. “Natural scents allow me to focus on you without any distractions, creating a more intimate and sensory experience.”

Do I Need to Shave Before a Tantric Massage?

Shaving is a personal choice. Some clients find that shaving their underarms and genital area increases sensitivity, making the experience more intense. However, it is not a requirement. If you do decide to shave, do so the day before to avoid irritation.

What to Wear For a Tantric Massage?

What should you wear? Comfort is key. Opt for loose-fitting clothes that are easy to remove and put back on.

Samantha advises to wear “something loose and easy to remove when you arrive. A robe is perfect because it keeps you comfortable and relaxed before we begin.”
During the session, you may be fully or partially nude—this is perfectly normal in tantric massage. Remember, this is a safe space where you are respected and cared for.

What to Eat Before Tantric Massage?

Your body is your temple, and what you put into it affects your experience. Eating the right foods and staying hydrated can significantly enhance your comfort and sensitivity.

Keep your last meal light and easy to digest. Heavy, greasy, or spicy foods can leave you feeling sluggish or uncomfortable. Aim for fresh fruits, salads, or a small portion of lean protein a few hours before your session. Stay hydrated by drinking water throughout the day.

Alcohol and caffeine may seem like they can help you relax, but they often have the opposite effect, making you tense or disconnected. For the best experience, avoid them for at least 24 hours before your session.

 

Preparing for Incall and Outcall Sessions

Where you choose to receive your tantric massage can also affect the experience. Whether you are visiting your masseuse (incall) or having them visit you (outcall), preparation is key.

Incall Sessions

If you are visiting your masseuse’s location, aim to arrive 10-15 minutes early. This gives you time to relax, use the facilities, and discuss any last-minute thoughts or preferences with your masseuse. Remember to bring any personal items you may need, like a change of clothes, hairbrush, or your favourite moisturiser.

Outcall Sessions

If the massage is taking place at your location, creating a calming environment is your responsibility. Make sure the space is clean, free of distractions, and comfortable. Dim the lights, light a few candles, and play soft, soothing music. Use fresh, clean sheets for the massage area, whether it is a bed or a massage table.

Tiffany gives this advice:”For outcall sessions, think of your space as a sanctuary. A clean, calm environment with soft lighting and soothing music can make the experience so much more magical.”

Post-Session Considerations

The experience does not end when the massage is over. In fact, the sensations and emotions you experience may continue to unfold in the hours and days that follow.

Take Time to Reflect

Avoid rushing off to your next task. Instead, allow yourself a few moments of quiet reflection. How do you feel? What sensations linger in your body? Embracing this post-massage calm can enhance your sense of well-being.

Stay Hydrated

Tantric massage can activate your body’s energy flow, which may also release toxins stored in your tissues. Victoria advises to “drink plenty of water after your session. It helps your body clear out any toxins released during the massage, leaving you feeling fresh.”

Embrace Gentle Movement

Stretch gently, or consider a short walk to ground yourself. This helps integrate the sensations and keeps your energy flowing.
