With [[The Sims 2]] [[Bon Voyage]], your Sims are able to get and give massages using the massage table. Sims can also learn new massages when on vacation.
A '''massage''' is a kind of relaxation [[Sim]]s can receive, which is generally from a massage table. Sims can give or receive a massage to another Sim if the massage table is present on the lot.

Not unlike a blue, padded, magic-carpet drifting into the clouds of wonderland, the 2-inch thick luxury massage mat, with patented tension-absorbing-weave, will float away the stress of a hectic day. Your home spa is complete with the Impruv U Pettegrew Massage Table and a phone call to a massage professional. You deserve it!

Massages can be obtained at the '''Impruv U Pettegrew Massage Table''' introduced in ''[[The Sims: Superstar]]''. The massage table can be purchased on both residential and community lots. If placed on a community lot, it will automatically spawn a masseuse; otherwise, the Sim must pick up the phone and hire one. On a residential lot, all massages are free (although hiring the masseuse is not), and Sims can choose from a Normal, Rough, or Energy massage. On community lots, Sims can choose from a Normal, Rough, or Chi massage, each of which costs §135. Receiving a massage will boost a Sim's comfort motives.

The Soft'n'Tender Massage Table makes such moments possible, providing a soft, plushy surface to plop down upon and convenient head-hole to stick heads into. One visit to the Soft'n'Tender Massage Table and you'll never be the same again.

Massage is a feature in ''[[The Sims 2: Bon Voyage]]''. It is one of the main attractions in each vacation destination. By default, all Sims know the Swedish Massage. Each vacation destination has its own unique massage, which Sims can receive for §100 or learn for §500 from the masseuse. Learning a massage will enable Sims to give it to other Sims, and get a [[vacation memento]]. They cannot, however, teach it to other Sims. The massages are Deep Tissue Massage from [[Three Lakes]], Acupressure Massage from [[Takemizu Village]], and Hot Stone Massage from [[Twikkii Island]].
 
Massages are given via the '''Soft'n'Tender Massage Table'''. Only an adult or elder can give or receive a massage.<ref>[https://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=448796 This mod] allows [[teen]]s to give and receive massages.</ref> If there are more than two adults or elders on a lot, clicking on the massage table will allow the selected Sim to give a massage to a specified Sim, or ask another Sim to give them a massage.
 
Receiving a massage replenishes a Sim's [[comfort]], [[energy]], and [[fun]] motives, as well as [[social]] which also builds relationship with the giver. Different types of massage have different effects; i.e. Acupressure Massage gives the most energy, while Swedish Massage gives the most comfort. Below is the list of massage effects:

|name = Infinite Zen Massage Table
|desc = Feeling overworked? Sore or tired? Or just wanting to get loosened up so you can spend a few more hours at the gym? Then the Infinite Zen Massage Table is the perfect way to find Nirvana. Your Sims will be on pins and needles during Acupunture, they will feel the heat with a Hot Stone Massage, or they may get steamy with a Romantic Massage - the choice is yours!

In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', Sims can receive a massage as a romantic interaction, from the [[spa]], or from the massage premium content. Receiving any of these massages can get rid of the "Sore" moodlet, as well as the [[wish]] to get a massage.
 
From the spa, Sims can purchase Shiatsu Massage (§50), Swedish Massage (§250), or Deep Tissue (§500). Getting these massages will give Sim "Relaxed" moodlet for 12 hours with +25, +50, or +75 mood depending on the massage. The '''Infinite Zen Massage Table''' has 5 types of massages. Unlike ''Bon Voyage'', the massage table from the store doesn't have a masseuse NPC, so Sims must ask from or offer massage to anyone.<ref>The Romantic Massage can only be offered to or asked from the Sim's romantic interest.</ref> The massage table is free from charge, but the table itself costs §550.
There are four types of massages:
* Swedish Massage
* Deep Tissue Massage
* Acupuncture Massage
* Hot Stone Massage
 
The types of massages from the massage table are the following:
== Getting Massages ==
* Swedish Massage - "Relaxed" moodlet
* Deep Tissue Massage - "Loose and Limber" moodlet
* Acupuncture Massage - "Finding Nirvana" or "Pinched Nerve" moodlet
* Hot Stone Massage - "Pebble Prepped" or "Hot Stones" moodlet
* Romantic Massage - "High Fertility" moodlet

Masseuses are on [[Community lot]]s and [[Hotels]] in [[Takemizu Village]], [[Twikkii Island]] and [[Three Lakes]]. They charge §100 for a massage.

==The LearningSims New4: MassagesSpa Day==
 
With ''[[Spa Day|The Sims 4 Spa Day]]'', Sims can receive massages from the Massage Chair or Massage Table. As Sims build their [[Wellness|wellness skill]], they gain the ability to perform certain massages at home.
Any Sim can give a Swedish Massage, but they need to learn the other three massages from a Masseuse while on vacation.
 
===Moodlets===
Masseuses teach Acupuncture Massages in [[Takemizu Village]], Deep Tissue in [[Three Lakes]] and Hot Stone in [[Twikkii Island]]. They charge §500 to teach a massage.
