Erotic electrostimulation

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Erotic electrostimulation (also known as E-stim and electrosex) is a sexual practice involving the application of electrical stimulation to the nerves of the body, with particular emphasis on the genitals, using a power source (such as a TENS, EMS, Violet wand, or made-for-play units) for purposes of sexual stimulation.

History[edit | edit source]

Erotic electrostimulation has its roots in the mid 20th century, when it was discovered that electrical stimulation could have therapeutic benefits for those suffering from various forms of sexual dysfunction. The practice has since evolved and is now used by a wide range of people, from medical practitioners to BDSM enthusiasts.

Devices[edit | edit source]

There are a variety of devices available for erotic electrostimulation. These include the TENS unit, which is often used for pain relief, the EMS unit, which is used for muscle stimulation, and the Violet wand, which is a popular choice for BDSM play. There are also devices specifically designed for erotic electrostimulation, which often come with a range of settings and attachments for different types of stimulation.

Safety[edit | edit source]

Safety is a major concern when it comes to erotic electrostimulation. It's important to use devices that are specifically designed for this purpose, as other types of electrical devices can cause injury or even death. It's also important to use these devices responsibly, following all instructions and taking care to avoid any areas of the body where electrical stimulation could be dangerous.
