Perform massage on a stable, relatively level surface. A bed, a futon cushion, several yoga mats or quilts stacked one atop the other, or a thick rug will work well. Obviously, a massage table works, too. Cover surfaces with soft sheets that you don't mind getting oily or lightly stained.
Process
All massage movements should blend together in a single, smooth, slow motion. Using the full surface of your hands, keep your fingers together. Touch and stroke as much as possible during the entire massage. When you move from one part of the body to another, always keep one hand on your partner’s body, making the contact seem continuous and a part of the massage. Repeat movements several times, and if your partner really likes something that you’re doing, keep it up for a while longer.
