RE:Can a happy ending really be part of a healthy therapeutic massage?

I have had many massages and the best have been with a release. I enjoy the intimacy of being naked with my masseuse which only adds to the relaxed state.

RE:Can a happy ending really be part of a healthy therapeutic massage?

One question though - I have come across several massage practitioners who are happy to [let] themselves be touched, even massaged sometimes. I always ask and never assume. Are you saying thats never ok?

By right, when receiving a theraputic massage it is NEVER okay to touch the massage provider. Thee may be times when they may lean one of your limbs against their body to perform a particular maneuver or stretch, but you should still remain loose as you lay on the table, as the session is about the needs of your body.

If you're getting a sensual/erotic massage, you might be able to touch the provider depending on if the provider allows it along with the work that they perform on you. As you stated, it is probably best to check in on if it's okay to do so rather than just think it's okay to do so and assume it would be part of the session. Just as you want the provider to respect your personal boundaries, you must respect their personal boundaries as well. I hope this clarifies things a bit.

Most people being massaged want to touch their therapist. In a professional massage this would be considered unethical and possibly illegal. Why? As long as the person or people massaging you don't object it only increases pleasure and relaxation. In our massages we encourage it.

I totally agree! whilst a desire or need to touch the therapist would never really exist during a massage purely focussed on adressing a physical/muscular ailment, in many other massages with a focus on relaxation and wellbeing of the mind, body and soul, there can certainly be an almost natural urge to touch the massage therapist. Often promoted by the close, intimate environment, even more so when naked. The touch doesn't even necesarily have any sexual motive, I think it can more often than not, even be just as an unspoken expression of appreciation and gratitude to the therapist, the feeling of wellbeing promoting a natural desire to share in the joys of physical contact, human connection and touch. Certainly it is always essential and only correct that there is a respectful appreciation of each others 'physical boundaries' and yes, it can be beneficial if these boundaries are previously fully understood, so enhancing everyones relaxation. However, if and where these boundaries are breached then a knowledgeable therapist will simply, gently but 'firmly' move any 'offending' hand away and any educated person should understand and respect any such action and behave accordingly. Many 'problems' maybe occur when people go for a relaxing massage with almost a sole intention or motive of experiencing 'free' sexual gratification / sexual / orgasmic release. Whilst there can be little doubting the pleasures of intimate massage and the intense relaxation promoted by orgasmic release, the wellbeing benefits of massage go far beyond those 'basic' aspects. I certainly feel that the very best massages involve not just the physical body, but the mind and soul.....taking us to our joyful place, if that involves the joys of mutual touch, then that can be truly wonderful.....should that pleasure give rise to any orgasmic bliss, then that should happen as something totally natural and mutual, as just a part of the massage exprience, and not as the primary objective. So ensuring the massage experience of creating a feeling of wellbeing is mutually satisfying for all.

There seems to me to be a difference betweeen massage provided in a professional setting and one between - or among - friends. In a professional setting, where you are paying for services, mutual touch may be allowed and even encouraged but should never be assumed. In a personal setting where friends are sharing massage, there should be an explicit or implicit understanding at the beginning about mutual touch. I also encourage it when delivering a massage to a friend.

they can be..but youd need to be a very attractive and engaging masseuse to not cop a smack in the mouth for putting hands anywhere they arent supposed to be

I've seen this show, and truly love that host.. she is very inquisitive and makes the show very interesting. It truly is sad that women don't have that option or opportunity to have the happy ending.. I know a lot of women are very sexual also, but from my understanding is that they also can suppress it better than men. Hopefully I'm wrong, but there needs to be some changes to the system. I'm all for women getting the same treatment as men.. if they want it.

You are correct, and yes, it is frowned upon even to mention it during a therapeutic session in this country.
However, in a nudist setting, it should be more common, in my opinion.
I was in Austin overnight many years back and was surprised to find a mobile masseuse service. After introductions and setting up her portable table in my hotel room, she asked what kind of massage I was interested in: back, full body, etc. I told her a full body. I immediately informed her I did not require the towel for cover, so she removed it. After an hour or so she had completely covered my body except my genitals. Lying on my back in full glory, she knew I was enjoying the session so she asked if I wanted to finish. It was wonderful, so wonderful I felt guilty that she had worked for two hours with only a cash reward, so I asked her if she would like a massage. Initially, she was skeptical but I did convince her to try one. She said it was the first time anyone had offered her a massage; others had expected sex but never a massage. She left two hours later, fully relaxed. She was so relaxed that she gave herself a treat as I covered her entire body with my oily palms.
So, yes, it can be a part of a therapeutic massage if both understand the benefits, I sure did.
