Electrify Your Orgasms: TENS Units for Beginners

Electrosex gadgets can be an exhilarating, painless, and surprisingly safe technique to induce mind-blowing orgasms, yet they are also occasionally used for BDSM pain play. It won't harm, either.

Are you interested in getting off with electricity? You don't want to fry your naughty parts. Therefore, you're scared to try? Don't be afraid! Electrosex gadgets can be a thrilling, painless, and surprisingly safe technique to induce mind-blowing orgasms, yet they are occasionally used for BDSM pain play.

It won't harm, either. Electrosex toys like TENS units, which are frequently depicted as intricate, tortuous devices, are straightforward to use and provide endless sensations. They can be used for delicate, erotic titillation or pain play because of their adaptability.

The two primary types of toys used in electric sex play are wands and TENS units.  In this essay, we will talk about TENS devices.  For additional information about Kinklab's Violet and Neon Wands, see  Shock Your Sex Life: Electro Sex for Couples.

What's a TENS Unit?

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation, or TENS for short, was developed in the 1970s for medical applications. To relieve discomfort, TENS units are usually administered to individuals with muscular and nerve pain.

TENS units consist of two components: two electrode pads and a power box that contains the electrical current controls. The pads are intended to be positioned a few inches apart on a muscled area of the body. The current that flows back and forth between the pads helps reduce pain in that specific place.

What is the connection between your sex life and a TENS unit? Humans, after all, are fascinating species. People quickly realized that applying those electrode pads to the genitalia felt AHHH-MAZING.

These days, you may purchase customized TENS devices designed by sex toy firms or get frisky with medical TENS units. Additionally, a variety of naughty electrode attachments, such as dildos, butt plugs, urethral noises, and penile sheaths, are available for TENS units designed for electro-erotic pleasure.

What Does Stimulation from a TENS Unit Feel Like?

The sensation is typically described as throbbing, buzzing, prickling, stroking, or rhythm suckling. Though it has a far wider reach, it resembles a vibrator. Imagine if your Hitachi Magic Wand could reach secret nerve bundles and deep muscle tissue that an external vibration could never achieve. Imagine changing the vibration's frequency from a steady, continuous buzz to a gradual pulsing pulse. It's similar to how a TENS feels.

The TENS has a strong sensual vibe on all levels. When intensified, the sensations become a sharp squeeze, and pain becomes a part of the mix. Those who appreciate BDSM may find this to be quite entertaining. The intensity settings are typically kept low by those who use TENS devices only for orgasmic pleasure.

Similar to an orgasm, the insertable attachments can cause the vagi or anus to constrict and release involuntarily. Some women utilize the vaginal attachments to help with Kegel exerc ses, in addition to the fact that this feels amazing.

OK. I'm Interested. What Kind of TENS Unit Should I Get?

You can utilize a medical TENS unit (also known as an "electrotherapy machine") for sensual purposes if you have one at home. The electrode pads are frequently sufficient to meet the needs of the majority of users, even though they lack insertable accessories. I suggest the Mystim brand for novices if you want to purchase an e-stim device designed specifically for sex. It is highly user-friendly, reasonably priced, and constructed from sturdy, medical-grade materials. Mystim power boxes are dual-channel, allowing you to use two sets of electrodes simultaneously.

Most essential TENS devices include electrode pads, sufficient to get you started. That's all many people will ever need. Attachments for the penile, BTT plug, and dildo are available separately and can be added at any time.

How Do I Use a TENS Unit to Orgasm?

For your TENS unit to work, electrode pads must be positioned correctly for best it can, the electrode pads must; using electrode pads alone to experience powerful, hands-free orgasms is reasonably achievable. Try placing the TENS unit in several locations to see what works best for your body. You might not feel anything if you space the pads too widely apart.

The underside of the shaft is where electrodes are typically placed for penises, with one pad at the base and one close to the head. As an alternative, position one pad on top of the scrotum and the other on the bottom for testicular pleasure. It can feel great to place a pad on her side of the vaginal opening or on either side of the clit. Another alternative is to put a TENS pad on either side of the anus. Remember that the sticky, jelly-like pad adhesive is most effective on smooth skin. If you're dealing with a highly hairy area, it's preferable to shave first.

The butt plug and dildo attachments are very self-explanatory. To change the amount of pleasure or pain they provide, merely insert them into the appropriate orifice and turn the controls. Since condoms obstruct the electrical current, they cannot be used on insertables.

Are TENS Units Good for Partner Play?

Because TENS units are so good at producing hands-free orgasms, they are ideal for usage alone. Nothing compares to the feeling of applying electrode pads to the external genitalia while simultaneously utilizing a dildo or butt plug. Additionally, Mystim units feature personalized presets that allow you to adjust the electricity's intensity to rise and fall at your preferred intervals.

Put one pair of electrodes on your partner and one on yourself for fun in a partnership. Experiencing the same feelings without touching one another can be immensely erotic. The TENS d vice can also be used during intercourse. Elevate your lovemaking with the additional stimulation of electrode pads that simulate sucking on your cit, testicles, or anus during intercourse.

What About the TENS Unit for BDSM?

A TENS device can be easily modified for BDSM play. Place electrode pads closer together, apply them to more sensitive areas of the body, or increase the intensity until the pleasure becomes agony. You can increase the pinching, pricking, and needle-like sensations by doing all these activities. When used excessively, a TENS machine can cause excruciating muscle cramps. Pacing padding on a foot's sole and ball is very cruel.

A TENS unit can be the perfect kinky toy for you if you want extreme pain but don't want any lingering soreness or bruises. All pain ends when the power is turned off, even though the discomfort might be rather intense when it is ramped up. (See 8 BDSM Tips - With a Twist for some advice on BDSM play.)

Are TENS Units Safe?

Yes, generally speaking. However, if you have an ice maker, an electronic medical implant, a cardiac condition, or are pregnant, you should never use a TENS unit. Additionally, TENS devices must never be placed over the neck or the heart.

Sunny, Why Do You Like TENS Devices So Much?

The deep, piercing sensations a TENS unit can provide are unmatched by any other toy. It's exactly what I need as a woman who frequently struggles with climaxing. Myself, I typically utilize both channels. The feeling of someone sucking my clitoris is replicated by one electrode pad on each side. I adjusted the controls so that the electrical pulses pulsed in time with a rapid heartbeat. The TENS creates some of the strongest orgasms I've ever had when combined with an insertable that contracts my vaginal muscles.
