Principles of Tantra Massage

Tantric Massage is a powerful way to increase the intensity of the feelings aroused by sensual touch. Here is how.

Tantra teaches that orgasmic energy can be circulated from the genital region up to the crown of the head. There are loads of healthy reasons for this. But one of the simplest is because of how wonderful it feels! In order to do this it takes both a practitioner and a receiver who are committed to the process. Here are the basic principles.

1. Orgasim is not the goal, although it may happen. Rather, the goal is to move the powerful energy of orgasim throughout the entire body.

2. When stimulated, the receiver should use his breath, imagining he is breathing all those pleasurable feelings the base of his spin toward the crown of his head. He can also use the powerful visualization technique of a red fire burning at the base of his spine, where the feelings of pleasure originate. As the feelings grow stronger so does the fire. Orange flames leep up to his belly. Even stronger feeling are yellow flames reaching his sternum and strongest yet are the green parts of the flame all the way at the top, reaching to the heart.

3. Meanwhile the practitioner is stimulating the penis as well as the surrounding areas. Using her hands and her intentions, she makes long sweeping motions to move the energy from the penis up toward the heart. She is careful not to overstimulate. Instead she listens carefully to cues from the receiver's body as well as his verbal feedback. If he is getting very close to orgasim she backs off slightly and helps him to breath the energy up the spine and through the body.

4. While orgaims is not the goal, the novice practitioner will find this very difficult and may instead choose to release the stored up energy. When this happens the entire body feels the stimulation and release; as if the fire that was growing at the base of the spine has become and explosion. After one has experiances this type of full body orgasim, he is likely to become a lifelong tantra connoisseur.

There is much more that can be said on the subject and the interested party is encouraged to keep learning. For massage therapists, I suggest going to a tantric massage training. For clients, I suggest finding a therpist who offers high quality tantra and going with an open mind. For couples, a workshop or a book on tantra is a wonderful starting point.
