OK I GUESS.......2007-06-26

The title should be Ultimate Sex Organ Massage. I don't necessarily mean that in a bad way, it's just a matter of what you're looking for in a video. The entire 50 minutes of this video pretty much focuses on how to give a hand job (on a limp noodle I might add) and how to finger your partner (some of which looked a little painful).

I probably should have purchased Lovers Massage from this series instead of Sexual Massage since the other review said Lovers Massage focused on whole body massage rather than strictly genital massage.

Its actually a well done video and A LOT classier and more sensual than porn. There's nothing gross about the actors or what they are doing or how they are doing it, even in the extreme close ups. I do recommend it if you don't think 50 minutes of genital massage would seem drawn out to you. Otherwise, I would go with Lovers Massage like I probably should have.

Not just a back rub! .......2007-04-13

This DVD is very explicit in how to give genital massage as well as the rest of the body. It's informative and shot very well. This is definitely a massage you only want to share with your partner... my husband and I found some of the techniques to be highly stimulating and very arousing. There is some good information here if you want to show your lover you really know what you're doing. It was definitely a 5-star night for us!

i was not pleased with the content.it lacked a lot. info was very basic

Great sexual massage DVD for couples.......2007-02-01

I finally got the DVD player hooked up in my bedroom - something that I highly suggest couples doing - and finally got some alone time to watch my assigned DVDs. Today's assignment was Ultimate Massage, The Art of Sexual Touch. This is one of the Loving Sex instructional videos, and since I had read Jenne's review of Lover's Massage I was curious how this video was different from the one she watched.

The is a 60 minute video which opens with a scene where a wife meets her husband at the door, telling him she has a special Christmas present for him. They then rush from the door to the bedroom and pop in the tape. The opening was a bit abrupt, but I suppose they had to get to watching the video somehow. Once in the bedroom with the tape running, we are allowed to see the video they are watching with begins with an introduction by Dr. Bernie Zilbergeld, the author of the famous best seller MALE SEXUALITY. There was one statement he made that I thought captured the essence of this video. "Erotic massage is a way to wake up the sexual sensual self. Sensual massage is not foreplay. The goal is not intercourse. The goal is not even orgasm. If you happen to have intercourse before, during, or after your sensual massage, that's fine. But that's not really the goal. The goal is simply to experienced pleasure."

The main difference between the Ultimate Massage video and the Lover's Massage video is that I believe the Ultimate Massage video is more intimate. While the Lover's Massage focuses on whole body massage, the Ultimate Massage video centers primarily on genital massage. The video is broken down into five parts: erotic frontal massage, Male genital massage, female genital massage, practice erotic frontal massage, and practice genital massage.

The first scene is the woman massaging the man. While instructions are given in the background, the woman follows through with the actions. It's quite sexy to watch how she strokes and touches his body, including the different things she does to his penis. Now in all honesty, if I had read the instruction in a book without seeing the video, I might have thought some of the suggestions could cause discomfort - The Serpent, for example (you'll have to watch the video to find out what it is). But when the instructions are given and I saw her carry them out, it made a connection in my brain that said, "Okay, that's what they mean." Then the video changes and we see the man carry out much of the same things that were done to the woman, along with explicit direction on vaginal massage and instructions on finding her g-spot - which I felt would be very helpful to some viewers.

After he has finished, our couple watching the video turns it off and they proceed to try out all the things they learned. It's not exactly the same, but it helps to reinforce all the different moves, and it shows you a couple of different ways to change the routine without affecting the eventual outcome - which is to please your lover. I do admit that I love the fact that these people appear to be really enjoying themselves. When he's giving her the g-spot massage you see her body twitch and jump, you hear her moans, just like it happens in real life. And when she is giving him the penis massage you actually see him ejaculate - not the cheesy sort of porn money shot, but a tasteful depiction of a man enjoying himself to orgasm.

What's it all add up to?
I think this is a great video for couples wanting to learn how to better explore their lover's bodies and for those who have a goal to just bring pleasure to their partners. This is not the kind of video that centers on `getting your own.' This is about using your senses, especially touch to tease and arouse your partner. I would highly recommend it.

A MUST HAVE!!.......2006-03-16

This dvd is true to its title!! The best part was the man doing it to the woman in the 2nd couple!! She has this full body trembling, body jerking, minding-blowing orgasm!! It'll leave you green with envy!!

Customer Reviews:

Sensual vs. Therapeutic Massage.......2006-09-23

This DVD already had many reviews, but I'd just quickly add that it's important to consider that "sensual massage" doesn't necessarily imply anything sexual. It merely means massage for the purpose of engaging and soothing the senses. That as opposed to "therapeutic massage," where the purpose is to relieve symptoms of medical difficulties. This DVD certainly does show some things that could be sexually exciting, but that's not its primary emphasis.

Useful DVD.......2006-06-15

The Art of Sensual Massage DVD is divided into sections that correspond with different parts of the body. The Chest and Abdomen contain massage sstrokes for that area, with every step show very clearly. You can see the motion that you need to use and the exact pressure. This is very important if you want to learn to give your own sensual massage to your friends and lovers.

I found this to be a complete and humanistic treatment of an often abused subject. In fact, massage is quite worthwhile and should be part of every home environment, along with fine cooking and music. I recommend this DVD for those who want to learn how to do sensual massage.

Massage made easy.......2006-02-20

The video is beautifully made, sensual and artistic throughout and in good taste. The instructional technique is very well thought out and you can learn at your own pace. Every part of the body is presented with great attention to details you will actually need to do a sensual massage. Common errors are discussed, so you don't have to worry about getting it wrong. The net result is a massage techique that feels incredibly good.

If you are interested in sensuality and deep relaxation, get this DVD. It's very enjoyable to play with, especially in a romatic setting.

If you really want to learn massage, this DVD delivers!.......2005-12-20

This is a very thorough companion piece to the books on how to do massage by Gordon Inkeles. Even if you have several of the books, as I do, this DVD will still teach you a lot about rhythms and pressures to use on every part of the body. There is nudity in every scene and the people being massaged look very satisfied, but it is done with restraint and good taste. I found it to be an artistic work, with much information that I couldn't get from any book. You will see every step of a complete body massage here and any questions you might have about technique will be clearly answered.

The massage technique in this DVD closely resembled that in the book called "The Art of Sensual Massage." I really appreciated being able to freeze a frame and try things myself. I think that anyone who is interested in massage will learn something here. This is a very good way to learn how to do a sensual massage.

Exactly what I wanted! Well produced and high quality throughout. .......2005-07-28

Very, very useful in learning how to do sensual massage. You don't need a single thing more; it's all here. The DVD takes you step-by-step through a complete body massage, leaving nothing out. Fingers to back, there are strokes and hints for every body part. All are clearly shown and explained in detail. The technique explanation has a warm, friendly quality which becomes part of the massage you learn.

Prudes take heed--there's plenty of unapologetic nudity here and it's a beautiful thing to behold. The people shown in the DVD are actually being massaged so you learn exactly what to do and where. Pressures and rhythms are clearly show as well.

Many hints on technique round off the DVD. When you try this massage on a partner you get terrific results the first time out. I can't recommend this highly enough. I've shared massage with a number of people since I got this DVD and have gotten great feedback. It's not difficult to learn at all.

Is Chong an auteur? .......2007-02-13

This film, on the surface, seems like a complete mess. It's completely plotless, and feels almost European in its pacing (honestly). I'm thinking to myself, was this intentional? Is Thomas Chong really an auteur, or was he just really stoned out of his mind when he directed this? The film itself is actually really funny, and it's the best of the Chong directed films. The scene at the beginning of the film (Cheech and Chong syphening gasoline) is hilarious (remember, this was made in 1980 with the gas crisis still on everyone's mind). The scene where Cheech and Chong improvise a song about "beaners" (showing that Cheech and Chong were doing racial humour way before the overrated Carlos Mencia) is great, too. All of Chong's films have that laid back, at times completely lackadasical feel to them, so my pretentious side is wondering whether Thomas Chong is a real auteur, or is he just a lazy stoner who managed, somehow, to string together a few films. Discuss...

Laugh your guts out!.......2006-02-14

It had been about 20 years since iI first saw this movie, I decided to buy it from AMAZON and thanks God I did it!
It is great fun this two guys, just good old jokes!

Not Jay & Silent Bob, or Harold & Kumar who all these "New Skoo" stoners thank are Reeeferatics! Cheech & Chong R Str8 up original, and this is the Tru Dank-Smokin' movie, its not jus tha Bud (which Marijuana stimulates your Imagination & feels good) thats the humor, its the story that stimulates the humor! Phunny parts such as when Cheech & Chong go through the Welfare post office, where Cheech hooks wit his sexy chicana girl friend Donna, and Chong has to sit down with these 2 severly mentally Ill dudes, or when Cheech gets a phone call from whom he thaught was Donna, which it was his Hill Billy cousine Dwayne aka Red! Cheech goes make Chong hook up with Red, in which Red owns 100 Ib's of Pot! Red & Chong go through a Long ass story together, Red is tha bomb in this flick....lots of Cocaine & Gangee in this "Real" stoner flick! Its such a Fun movies that the ending when Red and Chong split up you'll be swimming in tears! Best stoner flick on this planet, a must Buy movie!

Hey Julio you forgot one Holmes.....what about the forgotten and seldom seen "Things Are Tough All Over" all of C&C movies are fun (except the Corsican Brothers....what a loser of a flick, even for us Die hard C&C fans) over all next movie is the 3rd best of their films (in my opinion of course) Up in Smoke the 1st and Best and "Things Are Tough All Over" is the 2nd best, nice dreams comes in 4th....any of these 4 films will give you plenty to laugh at.

This is not a DVD that entertains. It shows you where and how to massage and does a good job of it. I would recommend it to people who are serious about their massage studies.

Basic Massage - great video.......2007-01-10

This is a very well organized video and explained what I wanted to know about basic massage techniques. It is good to own a video like this, since you will not remember everything you see the first time. I have not had a chance to see the Professional Massage video. This seems to be a lot more detailed with pictures and so on

Just what I wanted to find.......2006-11-01

Loved the full-unabridged version. So easy to understand for us - the older generation. I was very impressed. The secret is out. Massage Therapy is for everyone now. Thanks to this wonderful Massage Pack.

good combo.......2006-09-28

this is a really good combination set that takes you from beginning to end and teaches you things about massage that even some schools don't teach, from what I hear from a massage therapist who went to a school. I gave her my dvd to view and she said, "I didn't know about that", and "I learned this from the dvd". You could save lots of time and money using the dvd's as your learning base, I think.

Great video set.......2005-11-23

This is a great video set. I got it as a gift and I love it. It teaches some good techniques in the basic video and I'm about half way through the advanced video. No complaints so far. I just keep learning more.

It works!.......2006-11-15

What a difference. My boyfriend said he bought a tape for me, but I never knew what he meant. It was not for me, but for ME. Our experience was so different and so very complete. He wanted me to rate him, so we watched the DVD together. It was very well done.

Sensual Couples Massage.......2006-08-24

The medical community is just now publicizing results pertaining to the benefits of kinesthetic tactile contact (human physical touch). Scientists have recently discovered that there is a biochemical reaction stimulated in the human body as a result of prolonged physical tactile contact (i.e. massage). Two separate and independent studies published in the New England Journal of Medicine show that when humans are tested (using biochemical measurements) both prior to, and then AFTER vigorous bodily massage, the results differ in a very specific way. After a vigorous body massage there are elevated levels of substances called "Interleukins" and "Interferons." These substances stimulate the body's immune system and ability to fight off toxins. You can be certain that in the very near future, Blue Cross & Blue Shield will have a billing code which pertains to "Massage" for their clients.

"Sensual Couples Massage: Pleasuring You Woman" provides me with the most bang for my buck. It contains specific techniques which are presented intelligently and in a way that makes it very simple to grasp (no pun intended). If you are looking for an instructional massage DVD there is no better deal available . . . anywhere!

Solid instructional video.......2006-02-24

At first I was rather disappointed in the tape as it basically shows the guy giving the woman a massage on the bed and once in a while a Voice over would pop up and describe what was going on. However, as I watched carefully the techniques he used and began to imagine myself applying the same massage to my woman it really did become very helpful. When I did the massage to my woman, I could remember the movements and the voice over reinforcing what I should focus on. This is a solid instructional tape. Camera angles could have been better but overall I was very happy with it.

A great video definitely worth the money.......2005-07-26

This is a great video definitely worth the money. It's just the thing that many relationships need. This teaches you just how to massage a woman but it goes into more than that. This also shows you how to set up your home for a relaxing massage environment.

I highly recommend you get this video. It's great.

Healing power...Massage is an ancient form of healing, recognized and used for thousands of years to offer relief from pain, to restore good spirits, provide comfort, boost energy, and to rejuvenate muscles. You will be learning this ancient form of healing art with our Basic Massage Therapy DVD.

Who doesn't love a good backrub?

We all know that backrubs feel great, but do you know why? Sure, they relax your muscles, but they do more than that. They bring us into physical contact with another human being, and that itself, is a powerful experience. Add to that experience the trained, therapeutic touch of a massage therapist, and you have a potent tool for improving your physical, mental, and spiritual health.

This video gives you the instruction you need to be that massage therapist and gives you all the tools you need to learn the healing touch of massage. This is great whether you intend to massage for fun or even if you want to pursue this as a career.

Best 88 minutes I ever spent watching a DVD. My husband always was coming in from work complaining about his back hurting. Well he still comes home complaining but I think its just to get the massage I have learned to give. He is a now like a little pussycat enjoying life after dinner. What a wonderful adventure it has turned out to be for the both of us.

I bought this in VHS format - but many buy in DVD so I wanted to review it here as well. I was extremely happy with this video. It showed the basics - and that's just what I wanted. Most of us know that we carry stress in our shoulders and one of the things this video explained was the accupressure points in our body to relieve those stress knots. It also showed how to give a soothing swedish massage. I've used the techniques I've learned in the tape and always have someone who's fallen asleep by the end of the massage! (now THAT'S a compliment)! Thanks for a great basic tape that everyone should have.

Customer Reviews:

The book that changed my life. .......2007-03-04

This review is written from the point of view of a licensed massage therapist who went in the business after reading this book.

First I would like to share the story of how thing book got into my hands. Everyone who has been in Provincetown, MA, will tell you it's a different town. I knew nothing about its fame when I first set my foot there which was because I was offered a job there. At the end of the season I already knew that visiting Provincetown and not getting something from a sex store was like visiting Rome and not going to see the Pope. So, set on buying a modest souvenir for myself, I marched in one of the four stores in town and looked around.

To cut the long story short, among the huge selection of accessories and books, my attention was attracted by a book labelled "The Art of Sensual Massage". I flipped through and decided to give it a shot. As a shy single lady unsure how to approach the subject of her affection, I thought that was a sensible choice. I had my souvenir and a couple of weeks to experiment the moves on friends before I became brave enough to suggest it to my crush.

It is very important to understand that this book is entitled the art of SENSUAL, not sexual massage. If you are looking for a book to teach you techniques focused on and around the loins, look elsewhere. There are a lot of tips and hints on how to make the touch intimate, private, just for you and your partner though.

A total beginner with massage, my first tries with the book on a few volunteers left me stunned. I was amazed how good it felt to them! This was also extremely satisfying to me to see the change. In a week I was hooked. In a month I was confident enough to offer it to my crush. It was a ... melting experience.

Remember: all touch feels good. That is, if you desire to touch and be touched. This book can be a very powerful tool in the hands of those who want to bring happiness and content to their partners. It presents a wonderful form of physical intimacy not involving sex. The descriptions/instruction is very clear, easy to understand, with great pointers and suggestions. There photos are quite helpful as well and the models are chosen well. The models are nude but none of what is shown is in bad taste. Have in mind that the pictures were taken a while back in time which explains why they are in black and white and of course the body hair.

The techniques described in the book are excellent. Even now, as a professional massage therapist I still use some of the techniques suggested in this book. It is not necessary to have in-depth knowledge of anatomy to practise at home and with a few exceptions, they are very safe. Massage is for pleasure, not for pain and the author does a great job conveying the idea. Here are a few hints how to improve your experience (some are mentioned in the book, some aren't).
-- Warm the oil before you start. Dipping it in the sink with hot water for 5-10 min makes all the difference in the world.
-- Work the muscles (avoid pressure on the bones).
-- Keep your hands on your partner. Stay connected and if you need to reapply oil, do it with one hand.
-- Use firm and confident strokes.
-- If you start causing pain, stop immediately.
-- Always stay off the spine, varicose veins, sprains, hurt muscle/skin.

I warmly recommend this book to caring couples who want to explore each other's sensuality and learn new ways to bring harmony, content and pleasure in their relationship. Even though I do not have the DVD to this book, I suggest you to buy it as well, especially if you have no prior experience in massage. I believe the book may be of interest even for massage therapists and their partners. It definitely won't teach them anything new technique-wise but the attitude is indeed inspiring and refreshing.

Great Book for Couples.......2006-10-04

I got this book for my husband as an anniversary gift. We love giving each other massage, so I thought he might like a book that was easy to understand so we could both develop new teqniques. We both are learning a lot, and we've learned a lot that has helped our marriage.

MOST POWERFUL APHRODISIAC ON THE PLANET.......2006-04-28

Let's be honest: a well done sensual massaage is one of the ultimate turn-ons. Here it all is, laid out for you in black and white (color in the DVD). Stroke-by-stroke these are the tecniques you need to know to drive your lover wild. And this is hardly an exaggeration. I have seen it work wonders.

It couldn't be easier to get than from these directions, which are both illustrated in the book and shown in motion in the DVD. Real massage, real people. And some do look turned on too.

So good luck to you, friend, this is powerful medicine, if you are in the mood for it.

Very Good Massage Technique.......2006-04-17

I bought this excellent book and DVD combination as a gift for my lover. It brought us closer together and made lovemaking better. The techniques are very powerful, in the right hands.

I would not hesitate to buy this is you are seriously involved with a loving partner. The massage is also very relaxing and can make relaxation drugs unnecessary.

Very Happy with my purchase.......2004-08-20

Having owned THE NEW SENSUAL MASSAGE and enjoyed its beautiful techniques with my loved ones, I was delighted to discover this book and DVD package which makes the learning process even easier. The Art of Sensual Massage is probably the most famous massage book out there. We got it as a wedding gift and really put it to good use. What a great experience sensual massage is! This is apparently a new edition with better photos and printing. The DVD fits right in with the techniques described in the book...almost page by page. It's packaged inside the book. It's really fun to use them together. We have recommended this package to several friends and based on the enthusiastic responses, will continue to do so.

The bottom line: if you want to learn and really ENJOY massage, get this package. You won't regret it.

Chair Massage.......2007-07-01

I purchased a copy for several of my massage therapist who have experience in table massage therapy but little chair massage. Great teaching tool on how to give a great therapeutic chair massage as well as tips on saving your hands. Best DVD on the market.

Mastering Chair Massage.......2007-06-13

Great for massage therapists and the public, explains a philosopht of massage very well

Esalen Massage DVD -- Truly Magnificent.......2006-09-13

The Esalen Massage Video DVD was filmed on location at the Esalen Institute. Esalen is located at the coastal center of the breathtakingly beautiful, rugged Big Sur region of California. Some indoor and several outdoor spots are shown with demonstrations on massage tables in the Huxley meeting room, at the cliff-side Hot Springs Bathhouse overlooking and forty feet above the Pacific Ocean on both the ground floor and the upper deck, on the cliff-edge swimming pool deck one hundred feet above the ocean surf, similarly on the nearby spacious luxuriant lawn, and within one of the lush gardens on this harmonious landscape rendering of the wild and the manicured. In this exquisite production, there are many spectacular scenes taken from a helicopter, as well as still pictures of Esalen's founders: Michael Murphy and Richard Price, and noted early Esalen presenters: Joan Baez, Judy Collins, Ida Rolf, Joseph Campbell, Sam Keen, Christine Stewart Price, and others; a fleeting view of the rustic redwood Lodge, views of the cascading Hot Springs Creek with redwood trees on its banks, a favorite charming meditation spot: the landing on the stairway from the Big House to the beach, and of other awe-inspiring spots on this magical property.

In this 85-minute production, nearly all thirty-six members of the Esalen Massage Crew appear, if not as givers, then as receivers, with some as both. Twenty-two, as givers, appear with first names on the screen, with ten as commentators supplementing the mellifluous, informative voice-over that guides the viewer through the total body massage. The world-famous classic Esalen massage moves are demonstrated in stepwise fashion with amazing grace and beauty. The idea of producing an instructional massage video at Esalen dates to at least February 1977, but not until May 1997 was such a product released. The viewer is completely captivated by the presentation in the same way as actually being at Esalen, for both are works of art. Delightful to the eye and uplifting to the spirit, one never tires of repeated viewings.

Said of this award-winning best-selling video production - "gorgeous, wonderful, beautiful, enlightening, the next best thing to learning at Esalen, the best instructional video on the market, for beginners and professionals alike!"

I love the DVD.......2005-07-26

The video is great and I have incorporated the towel draping in my practice. Yes i am a CMT with over 1,000 hours of training and have my practice in Colorado. Most of my clients really love just having a towel including the women and i do get a few who are uncomfortable and we go with a sheet. The reason for a towel is to make the broad long strokes and not have anything in the way. If you people who are CMT's or LMT's find that sexual then you need to change professions. as for being close to the private area, have you ever done adductor work? You get closer to the private area with adductor work or even lower abs work than you do with Esalen Massage.

Not for couples.......2005-01-29

It's tough to rate this one because I was specifically looking for intimate massage. The setting is breathtaking, but the presentation is more professional how-to or "travel destination". Nothing intimate or arousing for two people in the privacy of their own home, but they may consider actually going to Esalen for a getaway.

Yummy.......2004-10-22

I am excited to try this with my clients or better yet find someone to do it to me...

Description

Professional Massage Therapy has long been a secret to the general public but now the secrets are revealed through this video. Our video class is taught by a massage therapist instructor with over 20 years of teaching who prepares massage students to take state certification tests. While each state has different certification or registration procedures for therapists, the principles and knowledge are the same no matter where you go.

Massage therapy has been around for hundreds of year but only recently has medical science played a role in the field. We can now medically explain the benefits of massage and understand the cause and effect relationship between massage and health. This video explores the medical reasoning behind massage therapy to give a broader, more comprehensive understanding.

The Massage for Professionals video starts where the Basic Massage video leaves off giving instruction on everything from strokes, techniques and pressure points to anatomy, physiology and muscle/bone structure. This video gives the viewer a great understanding of the physiological principles behind massage. With that understanding, the viewer can combine that knowledge with knowledge of basic techniques to be a very successful professional or someone who gives fantastic back rubs.

Excellent Video.......2007-04-25

I was very pleased with this video, and found it to be informative and very helpful. It makes no assumptions of what the audience knows, and explains every step thoroughly and in depth. Very good buy, and I am glad I purchased this video.

Begins where Basic left off.......2006-09-27

This is a great dvd for those that either want to "kick it up a notch" or "take it to another level". This dvd covers the basic briefly and then focuses on giving instruction on everything from strokes, techniques and pressure points to anatomy, physiology and muscle/bone structure. Very educational and good reminders even for the experienced.

anatomy lesson.......2006-06-01

This dvd/vhs tape is great for learning more than just techniques and strokes. This dvd teaches you about the anatomy, muscle and bone structure and physiology of the human person. I found this to be helpful in refreshing my memory.

Pro massage the way it's meant to be.......2004-10-19

This was the last video of a number of DVDs I bought from this company. I think they're all great.

I've learned a lot and I keep on learning.

Thank you
