FOUR HAND MASSAGE
TWO therapists massing ONE client simultaneously.
The therapists mirror each other, with one therapist taking the lead while the other follows. They usually use Swedish style massage techniques, combining long, slowing strokes with other techniques which are designed to relax the body.
Clients can request special attention for one area of the body, such as the back or legs.
In other cases, each therapist may focus on a specific area of the body during a four hand massage, with one working on the upper body and one working on the lower body.
Four hand massage can also combine massage techniques, with one therapist doing reflexology while another gives a Swedish style massage, for example.
Many people enjoy this type of Massage Therapy because they:
Find it extremely relaxing;
Enjoy the sensation of being pampered by two massage therapists.
It can take some time to get used to, as the sensation is very different from regular massage and it requires good communication between the client and the therapists.
People who are very modest may also find four hand massage uncomfortable, as the draping tends to be more limited, although modest clients may choose to wear undergarments or even clothes, if desired.
