We have had quite a number of people requesting this service and it was always very uncomfortable to turn them away. We always felt like we were offending potential customers. In this day and age one should be able to get a quality massage from a massage therapist of their choice, male or female - right? RIGHT! Men, when was the last time you spent 2 whole hours being massaged and pampered by a qualified, male therapist who you could trust implicitly allowing you to relax and make the most of your experience? Some men love massage and prefer the slightly stronger touch. Sadly, in this country massage often carries a stigma and it's hard to know who to trust. Fortunately, we are doing something to change this. You can now reserve a massage appointment for men, by men at the following locations: Kate'shttps://bestmassage.co.ke/what-is-a-happy-ending-massage/https://bestmassage.co.ke/what-is-a-happy-ending-massage/Wed, 16 Jan 2013 21:15:27 +0000We get very many requests regarding this type of massage. (Is it even a type of massage??). So much so that we thought it would be good to clear the air and explain our positions on this. What is a happy ending - as far as massage is concerned? A "happy ending" is when a massage ends with sexual contact. This is usually through oral sex or masturbation. Happy endings are most commonly offered to, and requested by, males but it is not uncommon to hear of a lady asking for a happy ending. In our country of Kenya, a happy ending is illegal and not done at legitimate massage parlours or spas. It is easy to tell whether a happy ending is offered at a particular place especially in the wording of the services offered by a particular place - words such as: "all body massage", "thigh massage", "oriental touch" etc. It is never appropriate to ask for a happy ending at most legitimate spas in Kenya or around the world.https://bestmassage.co.ke/best-day-for-a-massage/https://bestmassage.co.ke/best-day-for-a-massage/Mon, 07 Jan 2013 19:14:46 +0000What is the best day to get a massage or visit a day spa? I think I speak for everyone when I say that we all enjoy a good relaxing massage. Personally, I feel like I could use a massage every single day of the week. Unfortunately, our crazy schedules have us going somewhere all the time and so we do not have time for the little pleasures of life. So, today's questions is: what is the best day of the week to get a massage? Of course if you already have a favourite masseuse, then the best day is whenever they are available, right? But what if you don't? What if after doing all the requisite research you simply have no idea of which day to schedule your appointment? [caption id="attachment_371" align="aligncenter" width="600"] The perfect excuse for a day off![/caption] You want my advice? Tuesday or Wednesday , hands down! In my ... 'travels', I have found that: many of the best massage therapists take Monday's oof! (Boohoo, right?) This means that on the days of Tuesday and Wednesday your favourite massage therapist is fresh and ready to start the week strongly by giving you a wonderful massage. I find that the best massage therapists usually want to work during the day and if they are good enough they can dictate when they work. Good therapists are always booked and in demand because they are good at their craft. People will work with their schedule because no one wants to pay for a lame massage, they want a fantastic one! If you find a great therapist – you stick with them! Be sure to always ask if there is a special on the day you are going in – maybe you can add it to your session. And don’t be shy, book for the hour and a half massage. An hour is really not enough time to work all those muscles and knots out correct? According to me, the best day to visit a day spa is Tuesday or Wednesday. And if it means you take a personal day off right in the middle of the week, then do it!https://bestmassage.co.ke/sensual-massage-or-erotic-massage/https://bestmassage.co.ke/sensual-massage-or-erotic-massage/Thu, 27 Dec 2012 22:52:00 +0000What is the difference between sensual and erotic massage? A lot of people are confused about the subtle difference among the two. Let us look at the meaning of the words themselves: " Erotic " - refers to sexual desire, arousal or emotion. " Sensual " - can be described as inducing pleasurable and/or erotic sensations; Of or pertaining to the physical senses. In my experience these two words, especially locally in Kenya, are used as synonyms or near-synonyms while in reality they actually are not. It would pay dividends to learn the difference so that you can accurately describe what you want from your massage therapist. A sensual massage is not sexual but it is intimate. This does not say much but the difference will become clear when we explore what an erotic massage is: An erotic massage on the other hand is one which more sexual than otherwise. A massage which evokes sexual desire and which may involve sexual acts. The so-called "happy ending" massages and their variants fall into this category. Some locations which offer sensual massage are: Kate'shttps://bestmassage.co.ke/male-massage-therapist-for-ladies/https://bestmassage.co.ke/male-massage-therapist-for-ladies/Fri, 14 Dec 2012 01:19:47 +0000Ladies, when was the last time you spent 2 whole hours being massaged and pampered by a qualified, male therapist who you could trust implicitly allowing you to relax and make the most of your experience? Many women love massage and prefer the slightly stronger touch. Sadly, in this country massage often carries a stigma and it's hard to know who to trust. A good male masseur should understand that all ladies have different perceptions of their perfect massage. Some prefer to be covered. Some have areas of their body they are unhappy with and would prefer to remain covered and untouched at all times. The massage experience should start with a friendly "chat style" consultation designed to lighten the mood and let the lady open up about her levels of modesty, any boundaries, any expectations, any fears or taboos and anything else that is important to her. Additionally, you should discuss areas that constantly ache, areas that you just love to be massaged, areas you want to avoid, etc. The very best male massage therapists / massage clinics have anatomical drawings to guide the very shy woman. With regards what to wear during the massage, you should take off as much as you are comfortable with. The other factor that the masseur should have considered is your reassurance of safety. He should understand that especially on the first visit, because you are in a strange environment, you may feel apprehensive, frightened or vulnerable. He should have absolutely no objections to you bringing your partner with you. Your partner can sit in the massage room and observe, or if you are both happy with the environment he can just drop you off and pick you up later; your choice. Some people who offer male therapists are: Light Touch Kate'shttps://bestmassage.co.ke/full-body-massage/https://bestmassage.co.ke/full-body-massage/Sat, 08 Dec 2012 22:44:27 +0000A full body massage is just a way of saying that the therapist will massage your whole body during a massage session. This includes your back, neck, shoulders, arms, legs, feet and hands (and for men, pecs). Most massages will be full-body massages. During a full-body massage, a professional massage therapist works on your entire body, from your head to your toes. This usually done on a massage table in a private area where you can undress. If you’re modest, don’t worry — robes are typically provided before the service, and a blanket or towel covers your more private areas during the massage. A full-body massage is can often be customized, which means that you can specify the areas of your body that require the most attention. A good massage therapist conducts a consultation before treatment, including a discussion about trouble spots, technique, lifestyle, and the preferred amount of pressure. It's normal to be a bit sore after a full-body massage, but drinking plenty of water afterwards can help. Unfortunately (or fortunately), some establishments put out signs that say "full body massage" as a way to indicate there will be some kind of sexual contact or "happy ending." The ethics of this practice, of course, is debatable. Some locations that offer full body massage: Nothing Like It Relaxing Nairobi Blooming Beauty Clinic Light Touchhttps://bestmassage.co.ke/how-to-massage/https://bestmassage.co.ke/how-to-massage/Thu, 06 Dec 2012 23:54:50 +0000Many people enjoy being massaged immensely. What is strange is that some of the people who enjoy massage the most are those receiving it for the first time! Why Because massage is always a sensuous and relaxing experience. Learning how to massage may be one of the best things you do to be able to offer your friends and partner a relaxing and sensuous experience regularly! How to Massage 1. Setting up You need to set up an environment where the person you will be massaging can lie down comfortably. So a large area with enough space to move around. You need two pairs of sheets - one for the person receiving the massage to lie on (you don't want massage oil on your carpet or couch!) and one to cover them with. Never massage anyone without lubrication - so get a bottle of massage oil. Once ready ask your partner to address and lie down on the massaging space and cover them up. 2. The Massage Itself As you begin, keep in mind that the most effective massages are done when you focus on large muscle groups. Fortunately, they are very few of them: neck, back, shoulder and legs. First, pour a little of the oil into your hands and rub them together to get warm You should start with massaging the shoulder muscles mid-way between the shoulder and the neck. Knead ese muscles gently and pull them towards you. Gently and slowly work your way down to the upper back region, kneading firmly but gently as you go along Move both hands across the back towards both of the shoulders Cup your hands on the curve where the shoulders lead into the arms and gently lift a few times to stretch the shoulder muscles Work down each arm separately, making sure to knead both the biceps and the triceps gently Work down to the hands where you will use your thumbs to knead the palms Next, return to the upper back and slowly move lower to the mid-back. Use your fingers to work from the center pushing outward towards the ribs Continue to work down the back to the hips and just above the buttocks. Pay great attention to the lower back as it is a region that experiences a lot of tension and stress If your parter is up for it, the upper thighs should be next, where you should knead the muscles thoroughly Move down to the calves and spend a considerable amount of time as they are very strong muscles which get used heavily every single day 3. Massaging the Feet If you have gotten to this point you should have given your partner a pretty good full body massage! That sounds great, eh? Will, the real mastery in massaging is in giving an amazing foot massage so read on! When massaging the feet, be careful not to tickle the skin as it can get irritating Start with the heel: firmly grab it and push it up, down and side to side Next work your way to the underside of the feet and use deep slow pressure from your thumbs to knead this region Wok the balls of the feet and in-between the toes. try to pull on each toe for about 10 seconds (gently) 4. The End of the Massage Once you have completed, wipe any oil off your partner and let them know that you are done. A sign of a job well done is if you see that your parter was sleepy or sleeping during the massage. Relax. Perhaps share a drink, or sit together. Enjoy each other's company. General Tips Massage the muscles, do not press into bones, organs (e.g. stomach region) and avoid tickling sensations on the skin Target large muscle groups Use firm even pressure Always, always use a lubricant - preferably massage oil Pay attention to your partner and how what you are doing feels to them Professional Massage How about you try one of these professional massage clinics for that calming sensational massage that only comes through experience and professional training?

The short answer is that a body to body massage means that both the masseuse and the person receiving a massage are naked. Both their bodies will be oiled and then the masseuse will rub their body on the recipient - they will literally use their full naked body to deliver the massage. Some variants of this make use of soap instead of oil. Some people think that a body to body massage is awesome! Others think that it is immoral. The origins of the modern body to body massage are unclear. However, strong evidence seems to suggest that body to body massaging evolved from Thai massage techniques. What do you think of this type of massage? Some locations which offer body to body massage are: Kate'shttps://bestmassage.co.ke/best-place-for-massage/https://bestmassage.co.ke/best-place-for-massage/Sat, 01 Dec 2012 13:54:41 +0000What is the best place to get, or give a massage? You want to be in a private, quiet place for a massage. Make sure that the phone is off the hook, and that you’re not going to be bothered by the door, kids, animals, etc. You also want to be in a room with enough space to move around it. Select some soothing music and turn off the lights except for lighting some candles - preferably scented. If you do not have scented candles, perhaps now is a good time to think of getting them! You’re also going to need a couple of sheets - one to cover your work area, (you don’t want massage oil staining your couch!), and another to cover the person being massaged. Finally, you should also have some water available. Many people feel thirsty after a massage. It is best for the recipient to be on a firm, supportive, and comfortable surface. An extra-firm mattress is ideal. However, a couch, bed or a soft mattress is less suitable because it can buckle and fail to support the body in certain places, putting unsafe pressure on joints. In most cases, the floor is the best surface for a massage.

People are finally getting to understand that natural therapies as a way to improve your health and well-being are often times better - or equal to - traditional modern medicine. The massage is an excellent preventive treatment essential for the maintenance of health and fitness. As your mother probably told you, prevention is better than cure! Thing is, people all over the world have been enjoying the benefits of massage therapy for thousands of years. But what, exactly, are these benefits of massage? 1. Benefits to the muscular system Massages sooth and sedate you, thus providing relief from nervous irritability. Things such as insomnia, tension, headaches and other stress-related conditions respond to the power of the massage as the relaxing touches and kneading return peace, harmony and relaxation to a troubled mind. 2. Benefits to the nervous system Massage movements serve to relax and stretch muscles and soft tissue in the body. This reduces muscular tension and cramp. Additionally, as muscles contract, toxic waste products of the body are eliminated thus reducing muscle stiffness and fatigue. Massages are also known to promote good muscle tone and excellent body shape. 3. Benefits to the circulatory system The act of massaging takes pressure off of veins and arteries and this accelerates the flow of blood through the body which in turn provides relief to poor circulation and cardiac problems. 4. Benefits to the skeletal system Did you know that bones are directly affected by massages? Improvements to the circulation of blood and lymph caused by massaging leads to better circulation in the underlying bones thereby benefiting their nutrition and growth. Stiffness to the joins and pains from conditions such as arthritis are reduced. Other Benefits: It helps increase the ability to breathe slowly and deeply It helps in the proper digestion of food and getting rid of indigestion Skin condition, texture and tone are greatly improved The processes of the kidney are enhanced and improved Helps to lessen and in some cases completely stop period pains, irregular menstruation and the symptoms of menopause As the massage strokes are performed, the waste and poisonous substances which have accumulated in our overstressed bodies are rapidly eliminated.
