Jelqing, or "milking" the penis, has been around for many many years. It is a penile massage method that consists of manipulating the penis in such a way as to break down the fibers and get good blood flow through the organ, which results in gains in both length and girth. Care must be taken, however, in doing it properly, or injury to the penis can result.



"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 inches and the girth up to 1 inch.

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. It is advisable not to try jelqing while in the shower, or to use soap, which can irritate the skin.

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.

Jelqing, unlike some other penis enlargement methods, does not require the purchase of any extra or 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.
