Enshrined Ignorance
With the advent of registration, commercialisation and developing political correctness of the massage industry
the female breasts have been omitted in many massage school curriculum's. The USA is the leading protagonist against
breast massage as it seems that unfortunately a large number of Americans view the breasts as sexual organs.
The female breasts are designed to produce the milk needed to sustain children in the first years of life and have
nothing to do with sexuality although during foreplay and intercourse they may become more sensitive, but so do
many other parts of the body.
The female breasts are made up of fatty tissue, milk producing glands and lymphatic ducts and nodes which
benefit greatly from being massaged. The breasts of Western women are are susceptible to breast cancer than women in developing
cultures as they do not breast feed to the same extent and their breasts are confined to a restrictive brassier
for a greater part of their lives.
It is a widely held opinion with some excellent supporting evidence (see Dressed To Kill) that the confinement of
the breasts causes a stagnation of fluids within the breasts which provides the opportunity for cancer to develop
and new research suggest that regular breast massage helps to prevent and assist
recovery from cancers, see massage facts.
Few Western women are prepared to abandon their bras and massage is the only solution for them to
not only help prevent breast cancer, but to maintain breast health and shape. Self massage is something that women
can do for themselves as outlined in the short video below and breast massage should be included as a normal part of
any massage treatment.
The massage demonstrated here is best performed with a little massage oil, or some soap
while showering. The whole procedure takes from thirty seconds or more per breast.
