Erotic massage involves classic massage techniques that focus on erogenous zones, often using warm oil. Variations include: body-to-body (using the masseuse’s entire body), lingam massage (a Tantric tradition, involving penis massage), and yoni massage (vulva massage).
Offered as a standalone service or as preparation for sexual intercourse. In some cantons, “massage studios” that offer only massage are in a legal gray area—authorities investigate whether sexual services are being provided.
