Massage Video Blog

Why are soapy massage video clips so popular? I can tell you why they are so popular in the Middle East. Because it is part of their massage tradition. You might be a little bit confused about this fact, but I have decided to shed some light on this great massage style that is sometimes also called foam massage.

Of course many readers might not find here what they were looking for, but I am very fond of the Art of Massage and it is sometimes necessary to set the record straight.

Unfortunately it is an uphill battle, but for those of you really interested in new massage techniques that work great no matter if you are a therapist or not, if you just want to spoil your partner or just looking for technique that you would like to enjoy yourself, this is going to be a very nice treat.

I have had this hamam style massage as shown in the soapy massage video last year and it was a great experience. I'm not sure if you even have this kind of massage offered in your neighborhood, but if you have, you should try it.

While most massage technique video demo clips are just meant as teasers, so that you will buy a specific product or just to lure you into a website, Free-massage-videos.com is going a completely different way.

Actually a path that many of my colleagues with websites out there don't really like. On our website you can actually learn full techniques, get plenty of tips and insights about the Art of Massage. Just yesterday I introduced a new page about turkish massage, because it is such an unusual style. There I just have a massage technique video demo. But you can take these demos and incorporate them into your style.

That's what I do. I share it with you. Like the video on Korean Massage. I have never learnt it myself, but there are a few techniques that I have seen, that I am now using.

Just increase your arsenal of moves. Try them out. If they stick, great. If not, move on.

I have put together a massage styles web page with video links. I show a brief summary of the most important aspects of each style and offer links to pages that show video clips of the respective massage style and more information. I will update this page as I go along. There are many massage styles and massage techniques today that I have not mentioned in my article yet, so please be patient I will post them in the future.

Thanks

Prostate massage video clips seem to pop out more and more on the internet. Why is that? Is it just because it is something unique or because people are just looking for the newest rush? Anyway the websites offering these videos are mainly adult oriented and so I tend to think that this whole thing is more driven by that industry rather than by a newly found interest in prostate health and prevention of prostate diseases.

Either way my research shows that prostate massage is not necessarily promoted much by the medical profession, which does not prove that it would not be a valid method to improve prostate health.

I guess until there are scientific studies (if there ever will be any), you have to make up your own mind. I personally don't feel that this massage should be performed by anyone other than a trained physician. That's just my 2 cents.

It is hard to find Korean Massage video clips on the net. Even though this is such a powerful and great massage style, it is just slowly gaining a foothold in the western world. I like it close relation with martial arts philosophy. I mean anybody who ever did energy work and martial arts knows that the chi is what makes both activities powerful. No chi - no power. See one of the masters use a hip loosening technique, which works really great.

Very interesting is also that the table setting is really low, which makes it a lot easier to kneel and place your foot onto the table.

The oil massage video tutorial gives you a little overview about what you need to consider when you give an oil massage. There are many different styles using massage oil - the instructions here are worth considering for all of them, no matter if it is swedish massage, lomi lomi massage (Hawaiian Massage) or ayurvedic massage.

Oil massage is a great way to relax people. You can even warm it a little bit and use long broad strokes to increase the calming effect.

You can see more oil massage videos on my website under Massage Lubrication: Oil, Lotion or Cream?



The basic points are the type of oil, which you should use, the amount of oil that you should use, how to prepare your massage table, how to take care of your oil massage towels and sheets and how to properly use aroma oils in your oil massage.

You can also use oil massages in connection with hot stone therapy. Check out the No-Bull Hot Stone Massage Video for the "rock-solid" basics. For one a rock will transfer heat to the body, can be used as a fulcrum (but be careful around bones) and also release some of the aroma oil in the air, to create a pleasant ambience. More about ambience at "Setup for Massage"

The Oil massage video tutorial also talk about how you can get rid of towels and sheets that smell like rancid oil - you need to stay on top of your washing otherwise you will need a lot of towels and sheets in your career. Don't try oil massage on a bed, unless you know what you are doing, put down sufficient protection for the matress or just don't care if your bed smells rancid (be especially aware of that if it's not your bed!!!)

I saw this hot stone massage video today and I got really upset on how complicated some people really make this simple therapy. I use them for the last 15 years, because you can increase the flow of chi in a chronic (cold) area, where there is not enough chi. But you can also just use a hot water bottle.

What really tipped me off was that the lady said, that the massage therapist can ruin his hands when the water of the rocks is too hot. Duh, what about the client. It's simple: If you need a ladle to get the rocks out of the water, don't think about putting it on a client. This just makes me want to scream.

Anyway, that's why I put together this little video about Hot rocks massage, because it it is a very straight forward application and I feel that people just want to make it more mysterious than it actually is. That's why in many places people charge you twice as much for a hot stone massage than for a regular massage, even though the therapist is only doing half the work.

Clever, right? But that doesn't mean that hot stones are not great. They are, especially in connection with meridian treatment and other chi based massage therapies. But let's start with the basics first:

Deep Tissue Massage Video shows the basic misconception of this massage style, which is that it is done by using force. First motto is to do no harm, so why would you want to damage tissue in order to heal. Doesn't make sense, does it? But millions of therapists are pushing so hard that their clients eyeballs are popping out, all in the name of therapy. Watch this important video to really understand how deep tissue massage works.



You see it is true that deep tissue massage means to treat the deeper layers of tissue in the body, but it is most important on how you get in there. Consider this when you massage, get massage or learn deep tissue massage.
