Reflexology has a history that is fascinating and can be traced right back to Ancient Egypt, China and India as an art that was practiced not only as a tradition but to ensure the health and wellbeing of a person. Many archeological findings like paintings suggest that they used a method of applying appropriate pressure to the hands and feet. Pictographs depict scenes that showed work being done on hands and feet of people and hieroglyphs read "Do not let it pain me" and "I am doing just as you say", which give us an idea that reflexology was being practiced all those years ago.

Auricular Reflexology techniques encourage a person to relax completely, and improve the blood circulation in the body. Reflexology is most commonly thought to apply only to the feet, but Auricular Therapy or as it is called "Ear Reflexology" has also been practiced for centuries. "Traditional Chinese medicine" which has the classic text known as "The Yellow Emperor's Medicine Classic" shows the relation between the body and the auricle. Dated almost a hundred years before the Julian Calendar existed, this shows that it is one of the oldest references made to the ear corresponding/reflecting to other body parts for therapeutic purposes. In 618-907 AD in the Tang Dynasty, twenty therapeutic areas/points were made available to the "auricle acupuncture" treatment.
Ear Reflexology is generally administered through finger and thumb pressure techniques that are applied to the external ear. When this is used with other maps the ear reflexology session may last up to 15 minutes. When used alone, the treatment may last up to 30 minutes.
There are certain contraindications for Auricular or Ear Reflexology that include eczema sores or psoriasis that are usually open or wounds that are not healed in the ears. Sessions should then be postponed till the condition clears up or are healed. An alternative map for the hands or feet can be used in the meantime. In case there are clients who have devices for hearing, they may have to remove the hearing aid during the sessions. Those who have implanted or internal devices will know best whether this type of stimulus is appropriate for them or not.
A simple self-help routine in ear reflexology can be done at home while seated. Wrap your forefingers and thumb around the ear lobe and start a gentle "milking" movement downwards towards your shoulders. This gentle rubbing has to continue right down to the apex of the ear and up towards the crown of your head. It is amazing how this quick and simple technique can ease the reflexes and tension in the neck, spine and shoulders.
Reflex maps on the feet, hands and ears are a mirror of the body and have reflex points for each organ, body part and gland. When these specific reflex points are stimulated by applying pressure there is release of stress and improvement in body functions. Apart from this, homeostasis is regulated and natural healing of the body is encouraged. This is the reason why so many are opting for this type of alternative treatment and complementary therapy. It has also been found that reflexology helps to improve one's sleep patterns, aid in elimination and digestive difficulties and give almost instant relief to aches and pains.
Most of the time, masturbation is an activity a guy engages in alone. Sure, guys may occasionally (especially as teenagers) find themselves in a situation where they masturbate with a friend or they may be in a relationship in which sexual play includes shared masturbation. But more often than not, a man masturbates solo, as a way to enjoy himself and maintain penis care by keeping the manhood exercised.
But some men do partake in masturbation clubs. These are group masturbation sessions with other people at a designated location and time. A newbie who wishes to explore this option may find the tips in this article helpful.
Tips
A masturbation club can be a rewarding way for a man to "open up" his masturbatory experience in a new manner. As a newbie, however, there are a few things about masturbation clubs that a man should know.
- The mix. Some masturbation clubs (typically called jack clubs) are male only. Some (often called jack and jill clubs) are open to both sexes. It's a wise idea to check ahead of time as to what kind of club one may attend. Some men are happy to masturbate in any kind of a group setting. Others may have strong feelings about whether they masturbate in front of men or women. Do be advised, however, that even in jack and jill clubs, there tend to be more men involved than women.
The choice doesn't necessarily depend on sexual orientation. Many straight men prefer to masturbate only with other men in a club setting. They may be looking for a male bonding experience, or may feel awkward openly masturbating in front of a woman.
- Stick to masturbation. Many men enter a masturbation club thinking that masturbation will be merely the first step to a more involved sexual experience. In most clubs, this is not the case: oral sex, anal sex and intercourse are usually forbidden. Whether masturbation means masturbating only oneself or whether it can expand to include touching another person varies from club to club; finding out the rule at a particular club is advised before getting started.
- Keep it impersonal. Many club participants prefer to remain anonymous. If a newbie sees someone he knows at the club, he can nod a welcome or give a brief "hi" and see if his acquaintance responds. If he doesn't, don't push it; the acquaintance may have a preference for privacy which should be respected.
- No pictures. It's a "selfie age," but refrain from snapping at a club. Even if the picture is intended to be a selfie, a guy may accidentally include someone else in the picture or may make others worry that they Iv Therapy are being filmed without their consent.
- No clothes. Again, rules vary from club to club, but most ask that their members be essentially naked. (There are often exceptions for footwear.)
- Keep it clean. Clearly, a room full of masturbating men is going to generate a lot of ejaculate. Each man should be responsible for cleaning up after himself. Clubs tend to provide towels or tissues, but some men prefer to bring along their own.
A newbie may initially feel a little self-conscious at a masturbation club, which is all the more reason to use a top drawer penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) to keep the member looking proud and healthy. Many common penis skin issues can be alleviated with a crème that includes both moisturizing agents and a potent antioxidant. A high end emollient (like Shea butter) and a natural hydrator (like vitamin E) combine to fight brittle, dry penis skin. And an antioxidant like alpha lipoic acid is excellent at fighting oxidative stress that causes penile skin to appear wrinkled and aged. With a good looking penis, a newbie is more empowered to walk into a masturbation club looking his best.
