Mothers are the best massage therapists for their own babies. The home is the baby’s very own massage spa. Here are some body massage therapy techniques for baby’s torso that mothers in Oldsmar, Trinity, Safety Harbor and Clearwater FL can learn and apply very easily. These are done with the baby’s torso unclothed in a warm room without draughts.

The most basic stroke for baby’s chest and back is called the open book. The mother puts her palms together with the thumbs near her and the pinky fingers on the baby’s side. The pinky fingers are placed on the baby’s skin and the palms are opened with the pinky fingers moving away from each other while the thumbs remain together. The opening movement continues until the thumbs of the mother are flush against the baby’s skin. The thumbs then separate and move away from each other, also sliding against the baby’s skin.

Mothers can start a massage session by using the open book stroke on the baby’s chest, by the ribcage. Her palms should end up smoothing the baby’s torso under the arms.

She should repeat the open book stroke on the chest, but with the palms moving up to the baby’s collar bones to his shoulders and down the tops of his arms.

The mother should then position her hand diagonally on her baby’s chest with her fingers pointing to one shoulder. She should smooth up her palm until it passes under her baby’s chin to the crease of the neck. She should then use her other hand to do the same toward her baby’s other shoulder.

Moving down the lower torso, the mother should draw an arch with the balls of two fingertips from the top of her baby’s right thigh upwards following the underside of his ribcage and down to the top of his left thigh. This direction is complementary to baby’s digestive system.

The stroke called “scooping the sand” describes the motion of the mother seeming to scoop sand out of her baby’s tummy under his ribcage. This is done five times with each of the mother’s hands. It is repeated with the mother’s other hand holding up the baby’s legs.

A variation of the arch follows, this time using all the balls on the fingertips of one of the mother’s hands. She traces a rainbow from the top of her baby’s right thigh upwards to a point below his belly button and down to the top of the left thigh. She then sweeps her fingers back through the same route to the right. The full cycle is done five times, with the mother taking care not to rub her baby’s skin in an irritating manner.

The mother then walks her fingers horizontally just above her baby’s belly button from right to left, then slides her fingers back to the right. This is done five times.

Finally, he mother puts her thumbs together and spreads both pals like a bird in flight. She should place her thumbs in the middle of her baby’s stomach with her fingers curved around his waist. Her thumbs should be just on top of her baby’s belly button. She should then slowly separate her thumbs and move them away from each other toward her baby’s sides.

Mothers can be the massage therapists for their babies but self-massage is not as relaxing. Mothers deserve to be pampered, too. They can go get Swedish massage therapy, deep tissue massage therapy or sports massage therapy from any reputable massage spa in Oldsmar, Trinity, Safety Harbor and Clearwater FL. They will emerge refreshed and rejuvenated enough to be their best with their babies again.

I always tell my clients that a hot stone set for a hot stone massage is a great relationship investment! It’s a very relaxing ritual that you can perform on each other; and it also makes for great bonding time.

Anyway, with today’s hectic lifestyles, we all need a good massage every now and then right? But what if we combine a hot stone massage and a sexual massage? Wouldn’t that be a relaxing, yet seductive way to pleasure your partner? Of course it would be!

How to Prepare a Sexual Hot Stone Massage

First off, you need a hot stone set. These stones come in different sizes and are meant to be used on different parts of the body. For instance, small stones can go between the toes while bigger ones can massage the legs. Even bigger one can be used for the back and front torso.

If budget is a concern, then buy a second-hand hot stone massage set. There are plenty online you can have delivered to your doorstep.

Of course, you would also have to prepare the ’setting’ or massage room. It doesn’t have to be super fancy. One of my subscribers once mentioned that they never indulge in massages because they don’t have a massage table. Oh please! If there’s a will, there’s a way!

You can just drape towels on your bed and let that be the massage bed if you’re concerned about ruining your bed sheets. Some of my clients even prefer the bedroom floor! Just make sure you put a lot of thick, warm blankets on the floor and put tons of pillows!

As for the hot stones themselves, ensure that they are heated just to the right temperature. (Hot stone massage sets should come with a heater.) You wouldn’t want them to be too hot that you can’t hold them or that they scald your partner’s skin.

Of course, massage oil, music and lighting scented candles are a given. Here’s a tip: put the massage oil in the heater as well so that it’s warm too when you use it on your partner’s body.

Also, make sure the temperature in the room is warm as you should also be naked during the massage.

Sexual Hot Stone Massage Techniques

Ask your partner to lie down on her belly. Put a shawl or thin sheet over her back and lay a couple of hot stones on top of it, outlining her whole spine.

Now put some of that warm massage oil on your hands and rub her back legs. Grab two hot stones (one for each of your hands) and start massaging her legs. This will make her feel very warmed and relaxed.

Naughty tip 1: As you massage her back legs, nudge her legs apart bit by bit. Continue to massage her upper thighs, letting your warm and slick fingers brush against the back of her vagina.

Naughty tip 2: With the warm hot stones still in your hands, massage her buttocks. Massage in such a way that her bum cheeks are pulled slightly apart. Once her crack is exposed, lick her with your warm tongue.

Massage her feet and end by placing small hot stones between her toes.

Remove the hot stones outlining her spine and the sheet covering her back. Straddle her legs and massage her back with a new set of warmed hot stones. Massage her while letting your erect penis graze or lightly jab at her ass.

End the body massage with a body caress. Lean forward onto your partner and sensuously slide your body from side to side against her body. Rub your chest against her back and press your erect penis against her ass.

Do some very slight ‘push ups’ too. Simply raise yourself on your toes and arms and then slowly lower your whole body again on top of hers. After this, ask her to turn on her back.

Massage her front legs and feet with a new set of warm hot stones. Move to her upper torso, lavishing it with a generous amount of warm massage oil. Massage using a new set of warm hot stones.

Naughty tip 3: This is called ‘hot and cold’. Take a sip of VERY cold water or put a small ice chip in your mouth. Using your hands and the hot stones you’re holding, enclose one of her breasts, making sure her nipples are facing you. Lick or gently suck on her nipple.

The warmth of the hot stones on the sides of her breast combined with the coldness she feels on her nipples will both shock, please and maker her horny! Now the same on the other breast.

End the sexual massage by doing the ‘body caress’ again. This time will be even more exciting because you’re facing her!

For most women, enhancing their natural assets with the help of modern medical technology is no big deal. For example, if they would like to enhance the fullness, size or firmness of their breasts, some go for surgical breast augmentation. The problem with this type of breast enhancement is that the procedure is expensive, and there are certain health risks involved.

If you would not like to go through these health risks, you can still achieve breast firming with the help of natural breast enhancement methods.

A Multitude of Benefits from Breast Massage

One of the natural breast enhancement methods that you can go for is with the help of breast massage. As women age, there is a tendency for their breasts to sag due to the effects of aging and gravity. Now, if you would like to reverse the effects of these two factors, you need to perform breast exercises which will help keep the muscles of the breasts toned.

First up, here are the benefits of performing breast exercises and breast massage, which are both ideal natural breast enhancement methods:

A breast massage helps increase the circulation of blood in the chest area.

Breast massage can help alleviate the effects of Pre-menstrual Syndrome.

Breast exercises and breast massage help lessen the discomfort of breast cancer patients.

Breast exercises and breast massage help ease the discomfort associated with pregnancy, weaning or breastfeeding.

Breast massages promote an improved skin tone, while helping you relax and gain a balanced perspective at the same time.

The Advantages of Using St. Herb Breast Enhancement Products

Now that you have an idea about the many benefits provided by skin massage – you can actually speed up the breast firming effects of massaging your breasts – with the help of the products offered by St. Herb.

You can take your pick from the St. Herb Nano breast cream, breast serum, breast mask, breast spray and breast enlargement pills.

So how can you use the St. Herb breast enhancement products as a natural breast enhancement method? All you need to do is combine the product of your choice with the basic breast massage and breast exercises.

St. Herb is a manufacturer of natural breast enhancement products which contain herbal plants such as Pueraria Mirifica and Butea Superba. The effect of these natural ingredients is to help improve the shape, look and increase the size of sagging, small or unshapely breasts. Again, it is recommended that breast exercises and massages are used along with the product to have the maximum desired results.

For example, if you will be using the St. Herb Nano breast cream or any of the breast serums that they have available – you can perform these exercises. Make a light to moderate massaging action in a counterclockwise, circular motion around the breasts. This breast exercise helps promote maximum lymphatic drainage.

Ideally, the breast exercises and massage should be performed regularly. When it is combined with the use of St. Herb’s natural breast enlargement cream or natural breast enhancement serum – the breasts will be given a more toned, rounded and larger look.

Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy affects women in a multitude of ways. Pregnancy Massage can help expectant moms in Brandon adjust to their changes and feel great at the same time. Done properly, it can reduce stress, promote relaxation and facilitate transitions through emotional support and physical nurturing. It can also reduce edema and blood pressure, relieve varicose veins and improve blood circulation. Most importantly, if done regularly, it can reduce the length of labor and the need for drug-induced birthing. In addition, one of the most exciting findings shows that women massaged during pregnancy had babies with fewer postnatal complications and a lower rate of prematurity. Scientific fact behind what Massage Envy already new: a healthy mom who takes care of herself is better equipped to care for a child, even in utero.

Sports Massage

For the athletes in and around Brandon, there’s also Sports Massage. This is designed to help athletes prepare their bodies for optimal performance, recover after a big event, or function well during training. But a person doesn’t have to be in the Olympics to benefit from sports massage. Sports massage is also good for those with injuries, chronic pain or restricted range of motion. This is actually a type of Swedish massage that stimulates circulation of blood and lymph fluids. Some sports massage movements use trigger point therapy to break down adhesions (knots in the muscles) and increase range of motion.

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage is the most commonly offered and best known type of massage. It was developed by a Swedish physiologist, Henri Peter Ling at the University of Stockholm in 1812. It uses a firm but gentle pressure to improve the circulation, ease muscle aches and tension, improve flexibility and create relaxation. Swedish massage employs long, gliding strokes, kneading of individual muscles, friction, hacking or tapping and vibration. Swedish massage is actually the foundation for other types of Western massage, including sports, deep tissue and aromatherapy

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep Tissue Massage is a type of massage aimed at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle and fascia, also called connective tissue. Deep tissue massage uses many of the same movements and techniques as Swedish massage, but the pressure will generally be more intense. It is also a more focused type of massage, as the therapist works to release chronic muscle tension or knots. It shouldn’t hurt, but it’s likely to be a bit more uncomfortable than a classic Swedish massage. You should always feel free to speak up if the pressure is too much for you.

There are many more types of massage offered by Massage Envy and there will be at least one or two that each person will find the most beneficial and enjoyable. The trick is to try it at least once and experience for yourself the wonders of touch. Come and visit Massage Envy at Brandon today and see the difference a little massage therapy can make.
