Tantric Massage

What is Tantra?

Tantra can be translated in Sanskrit to a phrase meaning “to wave and expand”, but what does this mean?

Tantra aims to unite the physical world with the spiritual and states that the two are intertwined. The goal of tantra is to learn how to connect to this deeper realm, through embracing the masculine and feminine energies within us. It teaches us that the world is filled with beauty, chaos and joy.

We can consider Tantra as a spiritual path and not a religion. Whilst there is no dogma to abide by, it’s thought that through following the tantra path we will be able to live in a heightened realm of the senses, instead of rejecting or repressing these like typically done throughout Western Culture. Tantra has been passed down through age-old written and oral traditions. It is thought that most of our knowledge of tantra has been passed down for around 2,000 years.

“The ancient tantric masters of India believed that the world was created through the erotic union of Shiva (pure masculine consciousness) and Shakti (pure feminine energy), and that all living things emanate from their holy dance of consciousness and energy.” – Divine Tantric

What is Tantric Massage?

Through tantra massage, we aim to awaken the Kundalini and allow blocked energy to flow freely once again. The Kundalini is a mythological energy that lies idle at the base of the spine until awakened. Once awakened, the Kundalini will spread through the spine and stimulate healing.

By utilizing tantra breathing techniques (pranayamas), the recipient of tantra massage is able to focus and move energy throughout their body. This teaches people how to direct the energy within themselves which in turn will improve self-discipline and self-control. A combination of breath-work and meditation techniques are utilized throughout ritual Tantric sessions to help us to connect with our bodies and better control this movement of energy. Once mastered, you will be able to harness the full power of your sexual energy which will help you to recognize and connect with the divine energy within others.

Tantric massage focuses primarily on the erogenous zones of the human body, including the mouth, phallic, vagina and anus. The person receiving the tantric massage is not in any way the giver. The recipient’s duty is to open themselves up, relax and surrender to the “rediscovery of senses, feelings and emotions”. In western culture, it’s easy to get carried away with life, disconnected to self and influenced by other people’s opinions and sexualities. Through this process, the recipient of tantric massage will notice a feeling of well-being and deep relaxation, this is of course highly therapeutic and your session will even help you to resolve relationship problems and self-esteem issues.
