"Milking" the penis, or jelqing, is a penis massage technique that consists of manipulating the penis in such a way as to break down the fibers and get god blood flow circulating. This helps to enlarge the penis in both lenght and girth. When done properly, there are few risks. When done improperly, the risk of damaging blood vessels in the penis is possible.
"Milking," sometimes called the "Arab Jelq" from Middle Eastern fathers who would prepare their sons for sexual relationships by teaching them this technique, consists of wrapping the thumb and index finger around the base of penis while semi-erect and repetitively forcing blood into the glands of the corpus cavernosa (the spongy tissue that fills with blood and expands as a result of nitric oxide being released into your blood stream during arousal). Studies have shown that by utilizing this and other simular techniques, the penis length can increase up to 1.4 or more inches and girth up to 1 inch or more.
Preparation of performing jelquing consists of wrapping the penis in a warm towel for several minutes to allow more blood flow. This will help expand the blood vessels. After this is over, the person can began "milking.".
Lubrication is also needed, whether it be oil, Vaseline, or whatever your favorite lubricant may be. Do not try jelqing while showering, or use any irritant like soap on your penis.
Investing in a jelqing device that is expressly designed to help perform penile exercises to length the penis. Make sure to purchase a device that has been approved by Medical Doctors for use by their patients.
Although there are many web sites offering free jelqing instruction, it is advisable to invest in a book or video tape to learn the proper techniques of jelqing, and to prevent any injuries that may result from improper use. Proper jelqing techniques can be easily learned, but to for the best results, time and effort is needed, and sadly, a simple one-page web site does not give enough information to really help very much.
Unlike some other penis enlargement methods, such as penis pills and penis pumps, jelqing does not require that you purchase any expensive products. Most people know that penis enlargement pills and pumps are scams. Jelqing has been around for hundreds, if not thousands of years, and it appears that it is here to stay. The fact that it has existed for so long is a testimony as to its effectiveness.
