FAQs On Prostate Massage

By: Robert William Locke

Up to recently, prostate massage was not even mentioned. It is now being discussed more openly and is less of a taboo subject than before. Chronic prostatitis, infertility and enlarged prostate (BPH) are conditions where a massage of the prostate can be very beneficial.

Prostate massage can now complement many conventional treatments for chronic prostatatis and enlarged prostate, especially where treatment by antibiotics is not so effective. Not only does the massage relieve symptoms considerably, but it can reinvigorate the blood circulation around the prostate and help it to get rid of some debris.

If you have cancer of the prostate then this alternative is NOT for you as it can cause metastasis. Similarly if you have an infection of the prostate, then massage is NOT a good idea as it can spread, rather than contain the infection.

Massage of any type can be beneficial, as it releases the endorphins which are essential to maintaining a feeling of well being. Men who are seated for long periods are going to put an unnecessary strain on the prostate as the blood will tend to stagnate. A massage can get the blood circulating again and the prostate can benefit from this.

Prostate massage is carried out usually with a massager tool or the finger. The idea is to massage the area of the rectal wall which is next to the prostate so that the gland is stimulated. When this happens, fluid and other debris (such as accumulated toxins) are flushed out of the gland. The ideal movement is a stroking gentle massage, as if you were trying to massage an eyeball.

This type of massage, carried out regularly over a period of time, can actually reduce the size of the prostate, thereby increasing the flow of urine. Men also notice that there are improvements when they previously suffered from erectile dysfunction. The fact that it stimulates the flow of blood in an area very difficult to reach, means that it is often the most effective prostate treatment available.

The fact that extrenal massage can be almost as effective as internal massage is often overlooked by patients. Massage techniques using the fingers and with gentle circular mnovements will concentrate on the sensitive areas which are adjacent to the gland. These are normally just above the pubic bone and the abdomen area up to the navel.

Bdefore deciding which type of massage is best for you, there are a few things to take into account. Certainly extrenal massage is much more accessible and can be carried out almost anywhere at any time. But you may also want to consider herbal remedies as a very easy option where no effort will be required although massage will probably give better results over time. Herbal remedies used contain lycopene (from tomatoes), saw palmetto, zinc , pygeum and beta- sitosterol.
