Spending time together means being more present in the time you’re spending together. It means talking, doing things you both enjoy together. See if there is a massage therapist offering couples massage classes, where you learn how to massage each other - this helps you to know each other’s bodies in a sensual, vs sexual, manner. The benefits are two-fold: learning to give each other a satisfying stress relief and opening up loving communication.
Yes. This would be a great bonding moment for couples to share an holistic approach in shared energy between each other, as well as an life shared memory to reflect online the future.
Way too hard to answer. Depends on the couple and what’s Going in. Doing more things together can usually help though!
It depends on the couple whether couple massages can help a marriage. Spending time together doing things that each of you enjoys doing will build a more cohesive marriage. It certainly should not be restricted to a couples massage. A good marriage takes work, give and take, compromise, and good communication, etc.
As a massage therapist I recommend couples massage as a way to spend quality, healthy and healing time together. Everyweek I have at least 3 couples massage and every time their massage is over my clients are glowing and their energy is very good.
I encourage you to book a couples massage as soon as you can!
No
