Weight Loss and Increased Side Ticklishness

A couple of conversations I've had plus a post from the forum made me think that for some people, losing weight makes them more susceptible to rib and side tickling.

Firstly, I've had two different women tell me that being tickled hard on the sides doesn't tickle but is painful because as they put it "I'm fat".

Secondly, I recall someone on the forum saying that she became more ticklish after she lost weight.

And thirdly one of my close female friends who I had unsuccessfully tried tickling on her sides several times lost about 30 pounds. She was never overweight, I always thought she looked great, but she became very thin. I had pretty much given up trying to get her, until one time I just playfully squeezed her side. She jumped and said something about how losing the weight made her become ticklish.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? Or lost weight and realized your sides and ribs had become more ticklish?
 
I dated a woman before when she had curves and she was just ticklish a little on her tummy and sides. Years later we got back into a fling and she got all super fit.. granted I preferred her curves, but anyways, she was still the same ticklishness. It didn't increase or decrease for her. But I guess it just depends on the person.

On a side note, maybe it is just my extremely bad luck with women, but the skinny, fitness women I have dated, seriously are not that ticklish. Again, I do not think for a moment that hardly being ticklish or not ticklish at all depends on being skinny, fit or losing or adding on weight. I truly think it just depends on that individual.
 
I think ticklishness is a combination of physical and psychological factors. It stands to reason that a lack of fat/padding makes a person more susceptible to the physical sensations of tickling. But then psychology and temperament modify how they respond to it.

TMF member Lovesribs might have something to say about this subject!
 
When i lost around 100 pounds, i was way more ticklish after than before. Especially hips, ribs, tummy, etc

I'm trying to drop 15-20 pounds and I hope it increases my ticklishness. I feel like I've become less sensitive since I've gained weight. And BTW, chicago you were still gorgeous when you were 100 pounds heavier IMO!
 
I've known people who were more ticklish after they'd lost weight.
I wonder how much of it is physiological and how much is psychological, i.e, being a little more comfortable with your own body.
 
Thanks Matt62. Just love slender women. Wish we had more slender girls tickled. More rib tickling. Thank you. lovesribs.
 
It's a combination of physiology and psychology, right. Usually what can make people more ticklish is not losing weight but becoming more fit. As trained muscles become more tense from workout. For the same reason fit people tend to love classic relaxing massage more. Because now they have something that should be massaged. The same with gargalesis type of tickling.
Fit body can also sustain more pressure and probing without complaining about pain.

We've started to work much with fitness models and sporty women some months ago. Mainly not for the shooting this time. With their help we develop the combined program of tickle therapy and oil massage for relaxation and emotional and physical rehabilitation after competitions and workout. They come to us and feel the effect from the first session. So we prove this by practical results, this is not just out of the blue.
Another interesting observation in our practice is that some fit clients tend to become less ticklish after several sessions. So tickle therapy in combination with massage also relieves this muscle tension.
We continue our research with a very ticklish willing fitness model to see if we can make her ticklishness fade away completely. And even though this result would seem sad for us tickle lovers, that could be considered a small breakthrough in "tickling science".

What are your scientific methods of research and data recordings? Do you have medical professionals on staff? Do you report your findings to medical boards? Any clinical trials?
 
I echo the comments re psychology and physiology - a friend of mine who is aware of my kink for tickling and has willingly lee'd for me a few times has remarked that she is not ticklish around the waist/sides because of her 'fat' - she has previously said she 'cannot feel it because the fat gets in the way!'.

I think it's also partly because she's reluctant to have anyone play about with her in that area as she's not happy with that section of her body, so to her it's not a pleasant thought to have someone touching an area she's so aware of.

Her fitness levels are good though - doesn't drink or smoke, doesn't eat much junk and plays sports regularly, but recently she has been making a conceited ever to get fitter - going to the gym several times of week - and she has slimmed down quite a bit already, so it will be interesting to note any changes to her responses in the future. Her underarms are not ticklish either. Her feet are.

Maybe the physical presence of body fat is, in some cases, all the body needs as it's natural protection from the vulnerable areas that are being tickled (ie attacked by a predator) - it's harder for the attacker to get close to the vulnerable bones, muscles, internal organs etc - so even if the person is ticklish, the normal ticklish response is not automatically deployed because the body has already told the brain it's not required.


However, not sure if body fat has any direct influence on the sensitivity of the skin's surface? That's a slightly different aspect to the debate and technique may come in play - spider tickling/scratching may become more effective than poking and squeezing.

Just like with all legitimate scientific studies, data is readily available for peer review on Clips4Sale (The #1 Downloadable Video Clip Site On The Web!) starting at just $4.99!

Seriously, is this a place where someone needs to pretend they're being scientific?

Oh, come on, chicago :) I already wrote before that it's not about medicine.
We don't cure illnesses with tickling. Do you know the difference between medical and health-giving massage? I think you know that for example thai massage and yoga has nothing to do with medical boards. Yet we all know it's health-giving. At least by trying this personally or knowing it from others.
Of course you absolutely don't have to believe it.
We are massage proffessionals in various techniques (aroma oil massage, foot massage, spanish hiromassage) and yes there are medical professionals among us as well, however it doesn't matter. I repeat - we don't cure illnesses, we are not a hospital, we work with people so they can feel better, as a spa center, where people come to relax and feel good. This is our mission.
We tried this on each other and we already have a lot of practical experience since 2013.
We are absolutely not going for Nobel prize in medicine, so take it easy ;)

I can see you probably don't know spa industry well, so I'm trying to explain carefully. But I will be glad if I don't have to repeat the same thing over again ;)
You just don't have to believe it if you don't want to, no problem. Take it easy.

Nah, I'm more of a fan of the French or Czech studios. Their product is better, maybe because they don't waste as much effort on silly pretenses.

Do you have an actual spa that takes appointments and walk ins? Are the people being massaged customers or you pay them? Do you also sell massage videos on adult websites?

You are claiming therapy and whatnot and portraying this all as pseudo-science, but to call a spade a spade, it's all a front to keep your product from being labeled as porn which i believe is illegal where you're from. But i think there is a danger in making it seem like you are doing anything substantial within the health field aside from alleviating some cases of blue balls.

Good choice, Mr. Hater ;) That's cool that we have many good studios for everyone! No need to bark on what's not up to your taste. Cheers!

Who's hatin'? I'm just wondering why you're going to so much trouble to convince people on this site, of all places, that you're doing what you do in the interest of science or health (blue balls notwithstanding).

Ok, I see your point. To make it clear.
1) Yes, we have an actual spa with appointments. As well as individual practice at various appointed locations. We don't pay those who come for tickle therapy, they come willingly.
We don't shoot videos with them. It's purely tickle spa.
The results - numerous happy clients, warm feedback. But what's the most important to us - we see how clients become more relaxed, open, friendly and visually healthy.

Then, sometimes we shoot tickling clips about tickle therapy. For this we invite those who agree to be in our videos - models, female athletes, actors, tv hosts, singers, young mothers, mature women. Sometimes we pay them, sometimes they do it to get free tickle therapy from us. Yet, this is the exact same therapy how we do it in our spa. So it's shown as it is, and is about the same benefits and positive effect. Nothing fake, real reactions. And they feel the same and give the same feedback as our spa clients.
There is no danger because it's all real.
We use these videos as means of promotion of tickle therapy as a whole, because we want it to be spread. We also make videos because we think it's beautiful and fun, we love tickling, and we love tickling videos with real emotions, not fake, and love to share them with those who also do.

No matter how and why it can be labeled in one place or another, we believe tickle therapy is not pornographic, this is our mindset, and of those who work with us. That just can't be changed.
We don't shoot naked women with vibrating dildos used on them, like some other studios do only for money. And you know for sure their motivation is only more money.
I'd like to make it clear that I absolutely don't blame them for this, or think they are bad. Don't you also think that I consider our studio better than others. Nothing bad about porn. It's just porn and everything is clear about it. They don't waste time or money.
Our concept is different from the start. Of course we take into consideration that tickle therapy also looks sexually appealing, just like seeing a beautiful lady smile to you. Because it's also an innocent release of natural sexual energy which is also healthy. See the difference. Sexual energy of playful smiles and laughter vs naked pornographic behaviour in other studios.

2) Speaking about money. We need money to produce clips and to promote tickle therapy. It's about our hi-end cameras, lighting, high quality sound, models, ticklers, locations, editing, color-grading to make it look tasty. We don't earn much from spa practice, it's more like our passion and desire to bring tickle therapy to those who might need it, to make it reachable and to share our large amount of experience.
So this is where we are very thankful to all of our customers, and TMF, and c4s, for making it possible. Without their support we wouldn't be able to do what we do. And this support is very appreciated. So Tickle Therapy is also about our supporters.

3) And no, we don't sell massage videos for one simple reason - we love tickling and making tickling videos, not massage videos. Even if that could bring more money.

That's all. You may hate us, or you may like us. You may use spiteful words and call tickling clips just "wank fodder" like some members did. That's irrelevant.
We will keep on producing no matter what, I assure you ;)
The only thing that matters is what you will see in the future - tickle therapy made popular, widespread and not considered pornographic or illegal for the benefit of all who needs it. Or you won't. But at least we won't say that we didn't try.
Peace.

Of course not, if you mean the tickling videos on our c4s page. It's two different things, as I've already wrote in the previous post. We do special introductory like videos about tickle therapy for promotion of the spa.

I thought TMF is one of the places where I can do both things, can't I? Because it's about the same tickle therapy. I really don't get it what's wrong with that for you.
 
Because I find it interesting your claims that youre a legit spa interested in wellness through this "therapy" of yours, yet you only sell your videos to people who get off on the content.
