Couples Massage - Creating a Romantic Environment
Posted on: October 22, 2014
As a massage therapist, it is your job to provide a relaxed and romantic environment for the couples who happen to come in for a massage. Massage therapy is something that can be incredibly relaxing and rejuvenating, so a lot of couples may use it to reconnect to one another and share this amazing experience. With couples massage therapy, you want to ensure that you create a romantic atmosphere that they are going to be sure to love. Using candles that are lightly scented and playing some very soft background music are just two of the things you can consider doing when you're going to be doing a couples massage. Another thing to consider would be the benefits of aromatherapy. Aromatherapy is becoming more and more popular when used in massage, but the key is to find an amazing scent that both clients can agree on together. Many massage therapists go with light floral scents when doing a couples massage, but it really depends on what your clients are going to like for themselves. Certain people like muskier scents, and others like warmer scents that invoke the happiness and peacefulness of home. Before beginning the massage and using scented oils, it's important for you to discuss the different options with your clients. Let them smell some of the oils before you begin to use them, since this will allow for a much better experience. The last thing you want to do is to assume they will like a certain scent and then find out while using it that they do not. By having them test certain scents, they will both be able to find the one that is right for them, and you will be able to use this oil along with their massage to give them a completely romantic experience.
