Another classic and romantic idea pulled straight from Saint Valentine's little black book! It's no wonder that massages are so incredibly adored as our skin is the largest sensory organ in the entire body.
To prepare, you will need to purchase massage oil or lotion, keeping in mind that your partner may prefer specific scents.
The next step is to set up a massage "bed", which could be a flat tabletop, a padded exercise mat laid firmly on the ground (make sure to place a warm blanket or thick towel on top of it to make it more comfortable).
Make sure to eliminate any noise and distractions, by turning off phones, cell phones and other mobile devices, shutting off the T.V and if you have children, call Grandma to baby-sit! This is a time meant for just the two of you and you want it to be as peaceful and relaxing as possible.
Also keep in mind that you want the temperature in the room to be comfortably warm. Place a few warm towels near the area as well so that you can wipe your hands, prop your partners head or body more comfortably and in case of spills.
Turn on some romantic music, based on your partner's personal preference. If she or he likes jazz, play some!
If they're a classical or country fan, load up a CD with their favorite music. Just keep it turned down.
You want it to be in the background with your hands in the forefront. Work your way all over your partner’s body, taking your time.
Men: Read that again, take your time! You want this to truly be a pleasurable experience for her, and for her to feel as though there is no hidden agenda. You are there to show her that she means the world to you and that you want to make her feel relaxed.
Consider adding fun props to the massage, including feathers, silk scarf or even a blindfold.
Get creative and put your own signature mark on this special night.
