The happy ending massage...

Now you're talking! This is "hands down" one of the most basic and beloved things you can do for your partner--- learn to give him or her a decent massage...

It's not really hard to learn basic techniques...you'll then develop your own style... and before you know it... you'll be a Master Masseuse... and your mate just won't believe his good fortune.

In this section, we tell you how to set the stage, get started on the basics, select perfect massage music, and then we point you toward several great resources... oh, yes, also a word about massage & sex.

And don't miss our most excellent new resource for creating a true "happy ending massage": Better Sex.

SETTING UP YOUR "PARLOR"

Of course, a massage can be given anywhere; on the bed, on a mat on the floor, even in a chair. In the beginning, just set up on the bed... lay out a soft old blanket first to protect your sheets from the oil. This will do until you are sure you guys like the massage thing (heh heh)...

Later, a portable padded massage table with sheepskin or fleece covers is an awesome investment in pleasure.

Now then, what other massage supplies do you knead?

- A candle or two-to create a romantic, relaxing glow

- Massage oil- (Warm the oil bottle up in a dish of hot water.)

We recommend these to get you started:

Sex oil - Pheromones massage oil (citrus-basil) $8.99

Don't forget to add music to the mix--any soft, relaxing CDs you both like...soft jazz, new age or light classical work best... Check out our favorites below, including "Music for Massage"

To set the stage: you want to create a calm, peaceful sanctuary where you will be undisturbed for an hour. Put the kids to bed, the animals outside. Unplug the phones. Cut the lights, fire up the candles, spin some erotic tunes, and dive right in... Sublime!
