Untangling the Knots!

[iamonamissionnz]

Alright, you fabulous folks of our delightfully spicy forum—providers and punters, I’m diving into the deep end of a question that’s got me more confused than a first-timer at a kink convention!

The great sensual massage (SM) enigma is driving me up the wall, and I need your collective brilliance to sort it out.

I’ve never had an SM myself, but in my head,

it’s either a legit, knot-kneading massage with a naked provider and a cheeky happy ending

or

a flirty, less therapeutic rub with “extras” that’s basically full service minus penetration.

Which is it? Or is it both? Help!



The core of the confusion is this:

• Is sensual massage just a therapeutic massage (think muscle-relaxing, knot-busting skills) but with a naked provider and a happy ending tacked on?
  Or is it a distinct vibe—more about sensual, teasing touches with agreed-upon “extras” (hand stuff, body slides, etc.) that feels like full service without the penetration?
  
  
• If a therapeutic massage provider goes full nude and throws in extras, does that automatically make it a sensual massage?
  Or does SM have its own unique flavor, separate from therapeutic skills?
  
  
• If therapeutic massage is defined by deep-tissue, muscle-soothing work, what defines sensual massage?
  Is it the provider’s intent, the client’s experience, or a specific set of moves?

This ambiguity is a proper mess!

Recent threads (like prawnstar’s post about escorts ditching SM for pricier full service) show the chaos:
Prawnstar crave SM’s unique vibe, but Sahara say SM a physical grind for less pay when compared to FS.
JohnnyPunter noted some providers find SM boring, while Trible’s had SMs ranging from “shockingly bad” to specialist-level bliss.

The mismatch is real—punters book expecting a steamy, skilled rub, while providers might offer a quick tease, or vice versa.

It’s like ordering “spicy” food and getting either a mild taco or a five-alarm chili!

Add full service with massage to the mix, and it’s even murkier—is the massage part a serious knead, a flirty prelude, or barely a pat on the back?

So, let’s crack this open:

• Providers, how do you define sensual massage vs. therapeutic massage vs. full service with massage?
  • Is SM a proper massage with a naughty twist, or more about sensual vibes with extras?
  • If you’re naked and adding extras to a therapeutic massage, does it become SM, or is there a line?
  • What makes SM distinct in your mind, and why might you prefer (or ditch) it?
    
• Punters, what do you expect from each?
  • Is SM a therapeutic-grade massage with a naked provider and a happy ending, or a lighter, sexier rub with extras?
  • If a therapeutic massage goes nude with extras, do you call it SM?
  • What’s the key ingredient that screams “sensual” to you?

I’m genuinely curious to hear your takes—this is a chance for an intelligent, open chat to clear the fog.

All opinions are welcome, from the wildest to the most practical!

Strict ground rules:

Keep it respectful and curious.
No whinging, no bashing, and absolutely no belittling anyone’s perspective.


This is a safe space to share, learn, and maybe chuckle a bit.


So, spill the tea—what’s the real deal with sensual massage, and how do we untangle this knot?

It’s what you want it to be. There are many providers who are therapeutically trained and can indeed work some knots out, whilst simultaneously being sexy and finishing with the hand relief. (and/or included extras)

Basically if you want a proper massage go to a legit massage place, if you want a sexy rub down from a hot girl and a handy go for a proper SM.

Generally speaking you're best choosing one or the other as you'll often end up with either a half hearted massage or a shit handy and by the time you pay a bit extra for this and that its not really a bargain.

Superior Tina and Jennifer are probably the best at the do a bit of both but slim pickings really.

If the provider is skilled at both and manages her time well, you can get both done perfectly.
