The kind of massage lubricant that works for you is a combination of personal taste and practicality. The best way to find the perfect lubricant is to experiment with the many varieties on the market to see which one suits your style. Of course, most massage therapists utilize different lubricants for different practices. For example for deep tissue massage, therapists may prefer the added grip you get from a massage lotion.
Massage Oil
The staple of the massage therapist’s tool kit, massage oil is best for massage practices like Swedish where smooth, long motions need the extra glide that oils provide. Massage oil takes a long time to be absorbed into the skin, so you can work uninterrupted and use very little oil. Experiment with different nut and seed oils to find which combinations you like. You can add aromatherapy oils to augment your massage too.
Massage oils have a long shelf life and this is a huge advantage because it means you can buy in bulk and save.
Massage Gel
Try all the different lubricants with this Bon Vital Naturale Massage Sample Kit
Massage gel is made by blending traditional massage oils with vegetable wax. They have the advantage of giving you the smooth feeling of oil, but they absorb into the skin, so your clients don’t leave
feeling greasy. Massage gels often have additives similar to those found in moisturizers which help to pamper and revitalize skin.
Massage Lotion
Massage lotion is quickly and effectively absorbed by the skin. This makes it perfect for deep tissue and sports massages because it doesn’t slip like oils might. Instead, it gives you a better grip on the muscle so you can apply greater pressure for focused work. This is perfect for clients who don’t have time for a shower after a massage as it doesn’t leave an oily or sticky residue on the skin.
Massage Cream and Body Butter
Massage cream and body butter make for a great moisturizers and these are favored for spa treatments. They provide the most sumptuous hydration for skin and leave your clients feeling pampered and relaxed.
