Teach your man how to treat you to a sensual massage. There are a few essential ingredients, but the rest is up to him and his imagination!

Sensual massages don't need to be pricey either – you can use body lotion instead of the more expensive essential oils. The most important part of a sensual massage is atmosphere – you need a quiet room, preferably your bedroom (no kids, no TV, no distractions).

Turn off the lights and create a soft glow with some scented candles placed in strategic positions. Place a towel on the bed, or swap the sheets so that you don't have to worry about the oils ruining your 400-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets.

Remember, smell is an incredibly important sense. Make sure the room is filled with a relaxing scent such as lavender or vanilla – you can use incense or even freshly picked (or bought) lavender flowers.

Put on some music in the background. Make sure it's not hard-core punk rock, but something smooth like light jazz, or R&B.

When you begin the massage, put some lotion or oils into your hands and rub them together to warm up before you touch your partner. Now glide your palms all over your partners body – from neck to back to feet – put your body weight behind the movement, but don't press down too hard.

Don't allow your hands to become dry and sticky, the movement must be smooth, so add some more lotion and oils when necessary.

You can also feed your partner some decadent chocolate during the massage to awaken the sense of taste. Another important thing is to maintain skin contact at all times. If you really want to be sexy, massage your partner naked.

You can also swap positions half way through and allow your partner to massage you. Just enjoy the closeness of your bodies and use your senses to enhance the moment. Smell the essential oils, the incense and your partner's unique scent. Taste the chocolate, get lost in the mood music and feel the touch. Let it be an all-round sensual experience!
