Whereas a traditional massage focuses on physical relief, erotic massage can offer additional psychological release, fulfilling the oft-neglected need for touch and intimacy.įolks like New York resident Sam, 30, pride themselves on being able to provide a professional grade, Swedish-style massage with an additional element of sensuality. As opposed to a traditional massage, which involves laying dead still for the duration, erotic body work often involves an interplay between client and masseur, usually culminating in sexual release.
Many work in the nude, or in underwear, and allow varying degrees of touch from the client, bringing an erotic element to their practice. Erotic masseurs specialise not only in the field of flirtation, like their escort counterparts, but also in the art of massage.
