oil massage
Lubricated muscle work
A massage performed using oil applied to the skin, allowing hands to glide smoothly over the body.
The oil reduces friction, enabling deeper pressure and longer strokes.
Various oils are used—coconut, almond, jojoba—sometimes with added essential oils for aromatherapy: She booked an oil massage at the spa.
Distinguished from dry massage techniques like shiatsu.
