Erotic massage or
sensuous massage is the use of
massage techniques by a person on another person's
erogenous zones to achieve or enhance their sexual excitation or
arousal. Massages have been used for medical purposes for a very long time, and their use for erotic purposes also has a long history. In the case of women, the two focal areas are the
breasts and
pubis, while in case of men, the focal area is the
male genitals. When the massage is of a partner's
genitals, the act is usually referred to as
mutual masturbation.
