Yoni massage therapy aims to help you feel more comfortable with your body and gain a better understanding of what feels good to you.

Yoni in Sanskrit refers to the vagina and means “a sacred space.”
A yoni massage is about honoring the vagina and treating it with respect and care.

Yoni massage can be done alone or with your partner but is not necessarily about sex or release. Rather it is an exploration of your most intimate of areas and your connection with it.

What are the benefits of Yoni Massage?


Yoni massage is a way to approach your own sexual pleasure without it being about performance or expectations.

I just wanted to explore me. To know how good I could feel and how untapped my potential as a sexual being was.

The practice can be good for those who have experienced sexual trauma and are not yet ready to find a partner again.

The slow and methodical approach can help to make sexual expression fun, laid back and positive.

Yoni massage is also excellent for couples, lesbian couples may find this particularly interesting as an avenue to explore each others vagina.


How to Give a Yoni Massage


Prepare the mood and space


Yoni massage is about your journey of sexual and spiritual energy. It’s about finding out what’s in you. Though you can try a relaxing playlist, opting for no music is a great idea. as it will distract you from exactly how you feel and what is going on.

You might want to try some candles, but again scented ones will make things more comfortable but will also change the experience.

The way to think of it is, the more you add to the romance of the experience, either solo or with someone else the more you potentially take away from the spiritual element.

Oil can be a must, and don’t be afraid to apply generously. Keep a towel on hand if things get a little too messy.

Choose accordingly exactly what you are looking to achieve and act more or less frugal respectively.

Find somewhere dark, far from distractions, somewhere you can truly relax.

Try the floor, or the bed. Get some cushions ready if needed. Turn up the heating or put a fire on.


Prepare yourself


The Mind

This is a tantric experience. Tantra is about ritual, its about a slow meditative process of personal exploration.

Let go of expectations and attempt to focus on the journey more than the destination.

“Yoni massage can lead to orgasm, sometimes mutiple but this isn’t the focus. It’s better to stay present in. It’s strange but you want to both lose yourself in the pleasure and find yourself in the moment.”


  1. Take some deep breaths. Focusing on your breath, as it slowly leaves and enters your body.
  2. Imagine your tension leaving you as a cloud of energy as you breath out.
  3. Try to focus on the edge of the sound of each breath, trying to hear it the moment it leaves your mouth.
  4. Focus on the now, if you find your mind wandering don’t criticise yourself. Simply move your mind back to your breath.
  5. Continue this breathing as you get started.

The Body

To get started:


  1. Slide a pillow under your or your partners head.
  2. Bringing knees up and slowly to the sides to expose the vagina.

7. Orgasm control (edging)


Edging is moving towards the point of orgasm and stopping, before backing away to start the process again. It is used to heighten arousal, increase pleasure and to increase the intensity of the climax once the body finally reaches it.


The method:


  1. Image your climax as jumping from a mountain. As you become more aroused, you are climbing higher up the mountain.
  2. Once you realise that you are near the top of the mountain (climax) its time to stop. Take your hand away or push your partner’s hand away immediately.
  3. Cool down. Take some deep breaths and put your hand over your heart to feel your heart rate.
  4. When you’re no longer in danger of climaxing, begin again. This time trying your best to stay relaxed and just visualise your mounting pleasure as you return or masturbation or massage with your partner.
  5. Again stop. The more you edge, the greater the possible pleasure as your pleasure if stored like a bottle of champagne being shook but never allowed to pop.
