Erotic massage which incorporates elements from the neotantric movement in the Western world massages the primary erogenous zones of the body, those being the mouth, the phallus (penis), the vagina and the anus.Michaels, Mark A. and Patricia Johnson (2006). ''Essence of Tantric Sexuality'', chapter 14. Llewellyn Publications. Tantric massage is also known as a physical act of touch that intends to enlighten those interacting in it by harnessing sexual energy within the body. There is no interaction between giver (the practitioner) and the receiver. To understand tantra massage and tantra erotic massage one must understand the difference between sensual and sexual. Andro insisted on the sensual because the sexual had its place outside tantra massage and tantra erotic massage.

Erotic Massage
Erotic massage is the use of massage techniques by one person on another person's erogenous zones for their sexual pleasure. The process may achieve or enhance the recipient's sexual excitation or arousal and sometimes achieve orgasm. The person providing the massage is called a masseur (male) or masseuse (female). 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 a handjob in the case of men and fingering in the case of women. Today, erotic massage is used by some people on occasion as a part of sex, either as foreplay or as the final sex act, or as part of sex therapy.

Carl Jung
Carl Gustav Jung ( ; ; 26 July 1875 – 6 June 1961) was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology. Jung's work has been influential in the fields of psychiatry, anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy, psychology, and religious studies. Jung worked as a research scientist at the Burghölzli psychiatric hospital, in Zurich, under Eugen Bleuler. During this time, he came to the attention of Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis. The two men conducted a lengthy correspondence and collaborated, for a while, on a joint vision of human psychology. Freud saw the younger Jung as the heir he had been seeking to take forward his "new science" of psychoanalysis and to this end secured his appointment as president of his newly founded International Psychoanalytical Association. Jung's research and personal vision, however, made it difficult for him to follow his older colleague's doctrine and they parted ways. This division was pe ...

Yoni Massage
Yoni massage or yonic massage, derived from the word ''Yoni'', a representation of the vulva which symbolizes the goddess Shakti, is a type of Tantric full-body massage. It primarily focuses on the labia, clitoris, g-spot, uterus, the breasts, the anus and other erogenous zones. The massage is viewed as therapeutic and is sometimes used as a method of relieving tension, pain, or general discomfort of the vagina. It has been claimed by some practitioners to be helpful to achieve fertilisation, although there is no scientific support for this claim. Contrary to some beliefs, the purpose of Yoni massage is not solely to achieve orgasm, although it commonly occurs during Yoni massage. This is presumably because of the higher rate of achieved orgasm during masturbation, compared to sexual intercourse. Due to the stimulation of the vulva, clitoris, g-spot and if desired also the anus build-up, and combined and constant stimulation to the erogenous zones during the massage, achieving ...

Lingam Massage
A lingam massage (Sanskrit: लिङ्ग, ''phallus'') is a type of tantric massage that primarily focuses on the male genitalia, specifically the penis, testicles, perineum, and the outside of the anus. It is the male equivalent of a Yoni massage. Although sexual in nature, the goal of the massage is not to experience an orgasm. There is no inherent goal with lingam massage, though orgasm and ejaculation may frequently occur. According to Tara Suwinyattichaiporn, M.D., the aim of the massage is "...arousal and the connection between two people while focusing on erogenous zones." Massage oils are frequently used in order to reduce friction and increase sensation. Lingam massage may also allow the recipient to experience multiple orgasms Orgasm (from Greek , ; "excitement, swelling") or sexual climax is the sudden discharge of accumulated sexual excitement during the sexual response cycle, resulting in rhythmic, involuntary muscular contractions in the pelvic region ch ...

Wilhelm Reich
Wilhelm Reich ( , ; 24 March 1897 – 3 November 1957) was an Austrian doctor of medicine and a psychoanalyst, along with being a member of the second generation of analysts after Sigmund Freud.

His writing influenced generations of intellectuals; he coined the phrase "the sexual revolution" and according to one historian acted as its midwife.Strick 2015, ...
