Talking About Massage Therapy

3 Reasons To Book A Couples Massage

When it comes to doing things together as a couple, many couple's activities are centered around doing something active, like going to a game or going bowling or going out to dinner. Couple's activities are not often focused on relaxing and bonding with one another. However, couples massage is. 

Reason #1: Connect With One Another

Although you will be lying on different massage tables, you will be in the same room undergoing the same experience together. This will allow you an opportunity to connect with one another. You can enjoy each other's silence, which can be powerful to share, as you both get massages.

You may be able to talk with one another during or after the massage and connect over how you felt about the massage. A massage can be a great tool for clearing your mind and getting to share that experience with your partner will help bring you closer together.

Reason #2: Reduce Stress

There is no denying that stress can have a real impact on your relationships. When one of you feels stressed out, be it about work, school, bills, or your relationship, you are going to bring that stress home with you. That stress and tension is going to produce negative energy in your household and in your relationship.

When you get a massage together with your partner, you will both enjoy the stress-relieving benefits of getting a massage. When you get a massage, positive hormones are released instead of ones related to stress. Both of you will feel less stressed after your massage, which will help strengthen your relationship.

Reason #3: Encourage Intimacy

Getting a relaxing massage together can help encourage intimacy. After both of you have been massages and relaxed by a professional, your body is going to be relaxed, and you are more likely to be in a more relaxed emotional state.

Being in an overall relaxed and happy state can set the stage for further intimacy between you and your partner. After your massage, maybe you will go out to dinner and enjoy some private time together. Or maybe you will foster the togetherness by getting takeout and spending the evening together.

Getting a couple's massage will allow you to connect with your partner and will help reduce the feeling of stress in both of your lives. You will be able to enjoy an intimate experience together and may be able to prolong those feelings of intimacy. Look for a location like Miami Massage Therapy that provides couples massages near you.
