Some people have a good intuitive touch and some people have a toxic creepy selfish touch.

So true.
There's also the cold disconnected robotic touch, going through motions regardless of the receiver's response.

I'm not a professional, but for me when I massage someone, there's usually a lot of empathy involved.
I end up immersing myself in how they feel, how their body reacts, kinda trying to imagine their pains and aches like they were mine.
Idk, I've never really thought about it and I'm not sure I have the words to describe that.

A robotically responding body can be taught to respond organically. Stimulation rearranges nerves.
