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.

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.
== Types of Massages ==


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:
There are four types of massages:
* Swedish Massage
* Deep Tissue Massage ([[Three Lakes]])
* Acupressure Massage ([[Takemizu Village]])
* Hot Stone Massage ([[Twikkii Island]])

==The Sims 3==
In The Sims 3 Sims can get massages at the spa. Each massage has a different price. If you have the Sims 3 world Sunlit Tides, you can get an Infinite Zen Massage Table and get massages from other sims of your choice for free.

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.
== Learning New Massages ==


The types of massages from the massage table are the following:
Any Sim can give a Swedish Massage, but they need to learn the other three massages from a Masseuse while on vacation.
* 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
