How To Use Acupressure And Reflexology For Loving

Acupressure is an ancient healing system developed by Chinese doctors who believed that muscular tension concentrates around specific points in the body. Pressing acupuncture points acts like a concentrated massage. Tension and toxins held in the muscles are released, allowing blood and sensation to flow freely in the area. Responsiveness and vibrancy are heightened when blood and energy are properly circulating.

Reflexology is based on the principle that all our organs have reflex points on other parts of the body. A body area or organ can be stimulated by working the corresponding reflex-point zone.

Using these principles, sexual intercourse is a form of ecstatic acupressure and reflexology. Our sexual organs are our most powerful reflex points, and the entire body is stimulated when the sexual organs are stimulated. The Taoists call sexual intercourse “healing love” because of its many healing benefits.

Following are some suggestions for sexual arousal using acupressure and reflexology. Integrate these suggestions into your foreplay as you coach your partner to breathe.
