Do women like their breasts massaged?

Answer 1

Massaging of breast tissue, not including the areola and nipple, is considered beneficial for good health whether it is self-massage, or by a professional. If a massage therapist does that, the main modality is manual lymphatic drainage. The therapist needs to be specifically trained, usually in the Vodder system. The breasts are draped at all times and only the fatty glandular tissue is massaged, not the areolas and nipples.
From a veteran guy massage therapist to all the guys. JUST DON'T DO IT. I've been trained in the Vodder method and did a massage on a woman's breasts during my training, and then never offered it to my female clients. Listen guys, if you are like me, I had to use so much attention and focus to remain in a therapeutic mental mode that it was really exhausting. There is just too much symbolism and ritual about women's breast in the American culture that it is best to just not do breast massage if you are a male therapist. Let the women take care of that. I'm being direct and honest, if it sounds like a good idea to you to do it, then exam your motivation and look inside yourself to see if your intentions are purely therapeutic. That takes a lot of will power to maintain it if you can put yourself there, and the payoff in therapy and healing for all that energy is not worth it, in my opinion.
