You Can Shrink Your Prostate With Massage! Here's How To Do It!
Main summary
Key takeaways
Key wellness / self-care strategies mentioned
-
Start prostate massage early (prevention), not only after problems
- The speaker suggests it could be a “tradition handed down” to help men avoid later prostate-related health issues.
-
Understand what prostate massage may help with (as described in the video)
- Improves urine flow (since an enlarged prostate can obstruct urine flow)
- Supports ejaculatory flow
- Supports erectile function
- The speaker claims that when the prostate is healthy, men tend to have:
- good urine flow
- good ejaculatory flow
- firmer erections
-
Use proper technique for internal prostate massage (pain-minimizing approach)
- Relax + breathe rather than force/push
- Lubrication is required
- The goal is to stimulate the area behind the prostate and the relevant “ducts/pipes” as the tissue changes over time
- Do not “ram” it—use gentle pressure and let it slide in
- Position/approach options mentioned:
- Stooped position (opens things up)
- On your back or fetal position, using bearing down/clamping and releasing while breathing through it
- If internal massage uses a device:
- Angle toward the belly (penile tissue side) since the prostate is located toward the abdomen
- If there’s no vibration, Kegel/clamp-release motion while inserted can serve as part of the massage
-
How to locate the prostate internally (device/probe guidance)
- Start with a device that helps find prostate location
- A “full bladder” is described as helping you feel the prostate when you tilt forward (sensation similar to having to pee)
-
External prostate massage options (device vibration/movement)
- External stimulation targets the area between the anus and testicles (perineum)
- Suggested method:
- Start “slow and low”
- Back-and-forth movement with gentle pressure
- You can also sit on it briefly to let vibration penetrate (as described)
-
Add movement/productivity-friendly “micro-break” habit
- If you sit a lot (computer/transportation), stand and do body adjustments:
- Squat position every 15 or 45 minutes (as mentioned)
- Rationale given: prolonged sitting can reduce circulation/blood flow and affect nerves/arteries
- If you sit a lot (computer/transportation), stand and do body adjustments:
