This booklet, written by Steve Capellini, international massage trainer and author of Massage for Dummies, will show you how it works!


An Entirely New Massage Technology

Although it looks like a simple silky cloth, the Magic Massager is actually an advanced patent-pending device with multiple layers of fabric that allow an almost friction-free glide like you've never experienced before. Developed by a doctor in California, it is the first device of its kind.

The purpose of this booklet is to show you how easy it is to give a simple, effective and (most important!) pleasurable massage using the Magic Massager, even if you've never given a single massage in the past. The techniques shown here are appropriate for everyone. However, you should keep these few words of caution in mind:
  • never apply pressure directly on bony areas
  • avoid heavy pressure on the throat, eyes or armpits
  • stop massaging immediately if your partner is uncomfortable or experiences any kind of pain
  • always keep verbal communication flowing with your massage partner
Getting Started

The following pages outline a complete massage routine. You can follow the steps in order, or feel free to experiment and improvise. Once you've learned the basic moves, they can be applied to many different muscles. Remember to listen to your partner, apply light pressure, and have fun!
The Basic Moves

The four basic moves for using the Magic Massager are Gliding, Squeezing, Pressing and Circling. These are shown on the next page. Practice them first before performing a whole massage. In fact, it's a great idea to practice them on yourself first. The Magic Massager is perfect for self-massage!

Gliding

You can use the Magic Massager over clothing to simulate the luxurious gliding feel created with high-quality massage oils. Simply place your Magic Massager flat upon your partner's back or your own thigh. Place your palms flat on top of the Magic Massager, then move back and forth while applying a moderate amount of pressure in toward the body.

Squeezing

For those aching muscles crying out for attention, nothing beats squeezing. Place the Magic Massager over the area to be treated, then pretend you are kneading bread dough through the cloth, squeezing first one hand then the next.

Pressing

Use the Magic Massager to create a frictionless layer between your pressing hand and the muscles below. This action incorporates a little gliding into the pressure, making it feel light and comfortable. To perform Pressing, lay the Magic Massager over the area, then gently lean into your partner's muscles using your knuckles.
Circling

Focus your attention on those particularly tense and tight spots with this move. Using your fingertips, press into your partner's muscles through the Magic Massager then make small circles while continuing to apply the pressure. Do not press so hard as to create discomfort. It feels especially good to "work out those knots" through the Magic Massager because the pressure feels light and soft.
 
A Word About Body Mechanics

Professional massage therapists know that they need to take care of their own bodies when they are applying massage to somebody else. This is called body mechanics. To make sure you don't strain yourself while using the Magic Massager, follow these few simple suggestions:
  • don't bend over at the waist when applying massage as this may give you a sore back
  • be careful not to overuse your thumbs, and always keep your thumbs close to your hand rather than spread way out away from your hand to avoid strain
  • keep good posture and make a straight line from your fingers clear up to your shoulders
  • use body weight rather than muscular strength to apply pressure
The Massage Routine
 
  1. Start with your partner face down and lay the Magic Massager over the upper back. Apply GLIDING over the whole back, going up and down, back and forth, using a medium amount of pressure.
  2. Sitting to one side of your partner's body, apply PRESSING to the opposite side, starting in close to the spine and pushing away gently along the ribs then down on the waist.
  3. Once you've found some tense spots along your partner's back, focus in on them with some CIRCLING, being careful not to press on the spine.
  4. Use PRESSING on top of the sacrum, which is the wide flat tail bone at the base of the spine. Make sure to press from the top of the body toward the feet, making flat contact with the bone.
  5. Do some more GLIDING over the entire back, lighter this time, to smooth and finish the area.
  6. Move down alongside your partner's right leg and apply GLIDING all the way from the ankle to the hip and up over the buttock.
  7. Use SQUEEZING over the calves and up onto the thighs, making bigger wringing motions over the bigger muscles of the upper legs and small motions over the calves.
  8. Apply PRESSING into the thick hamstring muscles that run along the back of the upper leg.
  9. When you find particular tight spots in the hamstrings, use CIRCLING to loosen the area up. Keep repositioning the Magic Massager on the thigh to address the exact spots you are targeting.
  10. Once again apply GLIDING up and down the entire length of the leg, lightly this time.
  11. Repeat steps 6 - 10 on the left leg, then have your partner turn over.
  12. Sit at your partner's feet and use the Magic Massager to apply SQUEEZING all over the top of the left foot, sole, and toes.
  13. Move up over the ankles using CIRCLING moves, then apply GLIDING up the shins and calves to the knees.
  14. Move to the side of your partner and apply SQUEEZING to the thigh, then more CIRCLING around the knee.
  15. Make some GLIDING movements from the ankle, up to the hip, and back down again.
  16. Repeat steps 12 - 15 on the right leg.
  17. Move up to sit alongside your partner's right arm, then apply SQUEEZING to the hand.
  18. Use GLIDING up the right arm to the shoulder then back down.
  19. Apply SQUEEZING to the forearm and then the upper arm.
  20. Use CIRCLING to work out any tension in your partner's shoulder.
  21. Repeat steps 17 - 20 on your partner's left arm.
  22. Sitting at your partner's head, apply SQUEEZING to the back of the neck by lifting the head just slightly and slipping the Magic Massager under your partner's neck, then cupping your hand beneath.
  23. Place the Magic Massager over first the right shoulder, then the left, SQUEEZING the tops of the shoulders with your fingers cupped beneath the back.
  24. Place the Magic Massager gently over the hair and apply small CIRCLING moves all over the scalp and forehead, lifting your fingers as you move from one spot to another.
  25. Optionally, apply tiny little CIRCLING moves over the chin, jaw and cheeks, being sure to leave room for your partner to breathe freely. Now it's your turn to receive!

The Magic Massager in Water

It's unbelievable but it's true: the Magic Massager feels even better under water than it does dry. If you don't believe it, try using yours in a hot tub, pool or bath. It's especially effective on the feet, either your own or a partner's! You will feel as though you are massaging with high-quality massage oil under water.
Children & the Magic Massager

Kids love to receive massage, but often they are not patient enough to sit through a regular massage with the mess and bother of oil. With the Magic Massager you can offer a full massage right over clothes or pajamas. Children love the novelty and will even offer to give you a massage back when they see how fun it is to use the Magic Massager!

Massaging Your Pet


Cats and dogs love to be scratched and rubbed. The Magic Massager makes it possible to give them a real massage because their fur will "disappear" beneath the cloth. You'll be able to massage their muscles in a whole new way that they will love.
