The best massage for couples is usually Swedish, because the pressure adjusts for each person and neither of you has to agree on how hard is hard. Deep tissue, hot stone, Thai and aromatherapy each suit a different kind of pair, though, and the right pick depends on what the two of you actually want from the hour. Here’s which one suits two people, and why, so you can choose in about five minutes and stop doing the “I don’t mind” dance. If you haven’t had<\/span> a couples massage<\/span><\/a> before, it helps to know that each of you has your own therapist, so pressure and pace can differ even when the style is the same.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
