We are so excited to have our friends at Aneros Prostate Massage toys contributing a few blogs for Anal August. Last week we covered the pleasure of the prostate. This week, we dive into health and pleasure benefits. Without further ado, here are the pros on prostate massage!
From Tantra & Tao
Prostate massage has health and erotic benefits that have been well documented for centuries. The writings of Tantra and Tao described the prostate as an energetic and erotic center of vitality and virility. Up until the middle of the 20th century, massage of the gland was the gold standard for prostate ailments. Interestingly enough the new millennium has seen a rediscovery of the power of prostate massage for a variety of purposes ranging from erotic amplification to sexual health and wellness.
More intense orgasms
The posterior surface of the prostate is covered with a nerve bundle responsible for sexual arousal. Stimulation of this area via the rectum serves as a supplemental source of stimulation. Combining penile and prostate stimulation has long been known for generating orgasms of a much greater order magnitude. Focused stimulation of the prostate alone is capable of generating orgasms of tremendous power and complexity.
Greater volume of ejaculate
30% of ejaculate is comprised of prostate fluid. In addition, the smooth muscles of the prostate supply much of the pumping action observed during ejaculation. Erotic prostate massage physically expresses the gland in the moments building up to release and when combined with the natural contractions, yields greater amounts of fluid, producing a fuller more satisfying ejaculation.
Stronger erections
Prostate massage can promote stronger erections in several ways. By improving circulation in the pelvic region, and through higher intensity arousal. While other methods may focus on one of these areas, Aneros products combine all of the above adding pelvic floor muscle toning to the mix.
Non-ejaculatory orgasms (Super Orgasms)
Contrary to popular belief, orgasm and ejaculation are not one in the same; rather they are two separate phenomena. Ejaculation occurs as result of orgasm, not the other way around. Orgasms generated via prostate massage take advantage of a secondary arousal pathway. Referred to as Male G-spot orgasms (or Super O’s), these experiences are non-ejaculatory, whole-body events known for tremendous intensity. What’s more, as there is no ejaculation, there is no refractory period (loss of arousal), so it’s possible for a man to have non-stop, multiple orgasms! Prostate massage/stimulation can be transformative for solo and partnered play, providing a level of sexual fulfillment unattainable by traditional methods.
Relief from symptoms of prostatitis, CPPS and BPH
Prior to the advent of antibiotics, prostate massage was essentially the only treatment for prostate inflammation and prostatitis. Once drug therapies were widely adopted, prostate massage largely fell into disuse. With the emergence of holistic and alternative medicine in the 80’s and 90’s and concerns about the wasting effects of powerful antibiotics, prostate massage slowly reappeared again as a more body-friendly practice with few if any side effects. In recent years prostate massage is gaining traction with some physicians as well as an adjunct to traditional treatment to facilitate the absorption of medications into the gland.
BPH (Benign Prostate Hyperplasia) is a condition that effects 50% of all men between the ages of 50 and 60 and 90% of men over the age of 80. CPPS (Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome) is non-bacterial form of inflammation that causes great discomfort and can unpredictably come and go. Prostate massage has been shown to be effective in treating both conditions. In a study conducted by Columbia University published in The Open Urology and Nephrology Journal in 2009, the use of the Aneros massagers was examined in the treatment of BPH and Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome. Out of the 154 men involved, researchers found that 83% reported some degree of improvement with their BPH symptoms (with 51% reporting very good improvement to complete alleviation of symptoms). In the case of CPPS, 88% of the men reported some degree of improvement with 62% reporting very good improvement to complete alleviation of symptoms.
Better prostate health
Prostate fluid is produced in small sacs inside the prostate gland called “acini”. Some men develop deposits in this fluid that become hard over time, impacting these areas and creating inflammation. While the reasons for this are not fully understood, it’s believed that prostate massage may help unblock acini. It has long been known that inflammation results in the accumulation of calcium deposits in the tissues of the body, including the prostate. It is thought that micro-calcifications in the prostate can create more inflammation. In both cases prostate massage may help break up these deposits, so they can be reabsorbed by the body or voided in ejaculate.
When properly introduced, prostate massage feels great and is good for you! Do it for fun, do it for your health! Just do it! Curious? See more Aneros products here!
