Although today you’ll find different approaches to Yoni Massage, with a variety of focus, it’s still best known as a Neo-Tantric Vaginal Massage modality — partly based on ancient Tantric and Taoist philosophic and spiritual ideas — developed by Joseph Kramer and Annie Sprinkle in the 1990s in the USA.

Over the years, the various steps of the massage have been further developed, expanded, or refined, or taken into different, more specialized directions, and today it’s a widely taught and applied vaginal massage modality across the world.

On the whole, Tantric Massage offerings, including generic Full Body Tantric Massage and specialized Lingam Massage, have seen enormous growth in the past two decades, and although Yoni Vaginal Massage is a relative late-comer on the commercial stage, it has rapidly become an accepted and sought-after Genital Massage treatment modality.

Classic Tantric Yoni Massage is a massage with a spiritual-energetic focus, with the primary aim of bringing a woman’s sexuality and sexual creative energy to life, using a combination of concepts and massage techniques. It’s an exploration of sexual pleasure, a woman’s genitals, and her spiritual, sacred femininity.

A Yoni Massage treatment can also be a therapeutic opportunity for women (or Yoni owners) to open up energetically and spiritually, to de-armor emotionally, and release traumatic sexual and emotional tensions and frustrations.

Yoni, Yonee, or Yonic Massage sessions may also reveal new capacities for women, such as new types of orgasms, multi-orgasmic states, and blissful experiences, which come about through complete surrender accompanied by a gentle, non-judgmental, and supportive space which gives room for a pleasant and safe healing experience. Some women discover a new perception of their sexual energy and its expression, boasting a completely renewed awareness of their place in the world.

There’s sometimes debate about who should ideally give the Yoni Massage — a man or a woman — but in practice treatments are offered by both men and women, gay, bi or heterosexual; it simply depends on the woman receiving it, that is, what she prefers, or with whom she feels safer being able to trust and open up more completely in the session.

There are usually three approaches to a Yoni Massage: the first one having an explicit therapeutic treatment goal, the second approach is rather directed at the sensual erotic pleasure experience, and the third one has a spiritual focus that aims at supporting spiritual-creative awakening.

A proper Yoni Massage ideally starts with minimally a Full Body Tantric Oil Massage before heading to the Yoni. It will include attention to the various erogenous zones, such as the neck, breasts, belly, and inner thighs and buttocks before doing further intimate work. Immediately heading on to the vulva or internal parts of the vagina is certainly not the idea.

A Yoni Massage session typically includes working with the genital area — vulva, vaginal canal, clitoris, perineum, cervix and sacred G-spot — but mind that it may be carried out as and external massage, internal massage, or both, depending on the way the practitioner works and depending on the type of consent given by the receiver.

Within the Yoni Massage practice itself you can find additional specializations, such as Womb Massage (Uterus Massage), Cervix Massage, Clitoral Massage, G-Spot Massage, Anal Massage, or Perineal Massage. It depends on the practitioner how proficient they are in certain types of these more detailed massages, and if these treatments are also offered separately or only integrally within a Yoni Massage session.

As a therapeutic modality, Yoni Massage is focused on releasing tension and blockages within the abdominal and pelvic area (including work with the genital organs) with an aim of physical healing, alleviating or curing sexual disorders and dysfunctions, or rather being focused on emotional and trauma release helping a woman to reconnect with her sexuality.

A Yoni Massage therapist will adjust the flow, intensity and range of the treatment, doing things gradually, always with consent of the receiver, maybe over multiple sessions, to make sure that the massage doesn’t create (new) trauma or emotional damage.

Note that women may have an orgasm or multiple orgasms during the session (perhaps even for the first time) or more intense orgasms after the treatment. The final goal of a Tantric Yoni Massage is to help women to achieve higher states of consciousness by transforming healthy flowing sexual energy into creative spiritual energy.
