If you want to give massages, wouldn't you want some solid advice? It is always nice to surprise your partner with a high-quality massage right in your own home. Keep reading to get some more advice about being a great masseuse.

Don't eat right before your massage appointment. It'll leave you bloated and uncomfortable when lying down. Let food fully digest first. Then you'll be able to truly relax.

It is important that the area in which you are giving a massage is not noisy. It will be quite difficult to relax in an area that is full of traffic noise and quarreling neighbors. A massage should be as relaxing as possible. Find a quiet location or schedule a massage at a time where there will be less noise. You'll be glad you did.

Talk to your massage therapist about any concerns that you may have. If you have a question, ask it. There is no question that is dumb. A good massage therapist will be more than happy to answer all your questions. You need to feel comfortable during your session, so get whatever information you need to make that happen.

Make sure your feet are clean before you get a massage. Your feet are exposed to germs and bacteria that should be washed off, so that they don't get spread to other areas of your body. If you can't bathe your feet, try to visit the bathroom prior to the appointment and give your feet a quick wash in the sink.

Massage yourself when your muscles feel stiff. Begin by softly thumbing the outer areas of the body. Begin with arms and legs, and work from the bottoms to the tops. Do this in the morning to start your day right. You can also use this technique before you go to bed to relax and get ready for sleep.

When you go get a massage from a professional, let them know which areas are bothering you. A massage is for relaxing your muscles where they are the most tense. Your therapist probably cannot read your mind, so before starting a massage always tell them your problem areas.

A sports massage is beneficial for anyone who is active in athletics. Even if you are an amateur at exercise, sports massage can benefit you. These types of massages focus less on relaxation, and more on helping your body recover from and avoid injury.

You should now impress your partner with your newly found massage techniques. You can arrange one on a special evening after working long hours, or just on a pleasant weekend afternoon. Use what you've learned to benefit from reading this article.
