how to do penile massage - #37293
I am really confused and honestly a bit embarrassed about all this. Lately, I’ve been feeling that I should give penile massage a try, you know, but I have no idea how to do penile massage properly. It's like, I've read some articles on it, and some even say it can improve circulation or help with size, but it’s all a bit overwhelming. Last month, I had this really awkward visit to the urologist because of some discomfort, and they mentioned that keeping everything healthy down there is super important. Anyway, I told a friend I was curious about how to do penile massage to improve blood flow, but they just laughed it off. I mean, I really wanna learn, but I don't want to sound creepy or anything, and I don't know if it's really a legit thing or just a myth, you know? I feel like there’s not enough good guidance out there. So, do you have any tips or techniques about how to do penile massage that won’t cause any trouble? Like, what are the best oils or motions to use? Does it actually need to be a regular thing? Sorry if this sounds weird, but I just really want to make sure I’m doing it right.

Penile massage, though it might sound like a daunting concept, is quite simple when approached with understanding of basic principles. In Ayurveda, massage or “Abhyanga”, is a classic technique to promote well-being, often used to enhance circulation and vitality. When considering penile massage, it’s important to focus on promoting circulation and overall health.
A practical approach is to include this as part of your personal care routine. It isn’t about increasing size, but more about maintaining vascular health and improving circulation. Use a warm oil, such as sesame oil or coconut oil, which are both nourishing and balancing. Sesame oil, rich in linoleic acid, is grounding, while coconut oil, with its cooling properties, is ideal if you pita is high.
Begin by warming a small amount of oil between your palms. You want to apply gentle pressure, using smooth upward strokes from the base of the penis to the tip. This encourages blood flow. Meanwhile, maintain a rhythm that’s comfortable — excess pressure is unnecessary and should be avoided to prevent any irritation.
In Ayurvedic philosophy, consistency is key. Engaging in massage regularly, perhaps 2-3 times a week, may offer potential benefits. However, be attentive to any discomfort or unusual symptoms—these could be signs to tone down or cease the practice, and proper medical consultation might be required.
If the idea of penile massage feels awkward or concerning, remember it’s entirely optional and there are other methods to support genital blood flow. Regular exercise and a balanced diet both play an equivalent role, complementing any direct practices like massage.
Finally, ensure you’re relaxed during the process, assisting in stress reduction, which naturally enhances circulation. It’s not something that should cause anxiety or stress. If you’ve had prior medical concerns, seeking professional advice based on your unique health context is recommended, as they can offer insights tailored specifically to you.
