The orgasms you get when you do not use your hands are known as hands-free orgasms. Read this article to know the techniques used in hands-free orgasms, including binaural beats, water playing, BDSM play, nipple play, and tantra sex.

Hands-free orgasms are the orgasms you get without using your hands. If you achieve orgasms with your partners' hands, sex toys, or oral stimulations, that is not a hands-free orgasm. When you aim for a hands-free orgasm, all the other parts of the body help in sexual pleasure; Hands-free may also mean using your mind, household items, or the mind. Hands-free orgasms have no fixed description. It may mean that no hand should be involved, which does not include your partner's hands.

Techniques of Handsfree Orgasms

Wassersug & Wibowo (2017) explained that a variety of sex toys on the market are hands-free. Sex toys are working to ensure that all our needs are met, including persons with disabilities and limited mobility. So, there are sex toys that you can enjoy using without touching. Some sex toys are attached to household items, such as a saddle you can place on a bike, which causes the sensations you need. Some dildos have suctioned ends that you can place anywhere and enjoy having sex with them anywhere. Or a vibrating dildo you can attach to a chair. Maaloufaalouf (2017) explained that some sex toys are wearable, and some are remote-controlled. Some use apps, and others use blue tooths. Hands-free sex toys are popular because you can focus on the sensations. Most sex toys are wearable or rideable. We can wear most wearable sex toys outdoors.

Water playing

Water play involves playing with water so that it hits the vulva. The more rhythmic the water is, the more sensational it gets for the clitoris. If the sensations persist, you might get arousal.

Humping and grinding

You may hump and grind anything and get an orgasm. You may use pillows, blankets, or a bedpost. The friction will help you reach an orgasm, and if possible, you may use a lubricant so that you do not harm yourself. You can place something over or under a vibrator and place your genitals on it. If you have a penis, you may use a crevice between cushions or seats. You could use food, like pies. But you must wear a condom to protect yourself against infections, irritation, and burning if you use food.

BDSM play

During BDSM, you may have your partner tie your hands so that you may strictly have a hands-free experience. Your partner will make you have orgasms through stimulation with toys and their hands.

Nipple play

Sayin (2012) explained that some people get orgasms during nipple play because the nipples are an erogenous zone. The erogenous zones as the "…extra-sensitive areas. When the clamps or suctions are placed on the nipples, blood rushes to the nipples, and when the clamps or suctions are removed, blood leaves the nipples. When the nipples are stimulated and the person is aroused, the sensations are spread all over the body and may end up causing an orgasm.

During sex

When the couple has penetrative or oral sex, they may have sex that keeps the hands out of the way and may involve tying a partner. While the hands are tied, one partner has the role of pleasing the tied partner until they have an orgasm.

Tantric Sex

Tantra is an ancient practice described as “a movement whose origins are not clear, but which likely began around the fifth century. Hlavinka (2019) explained that" Tantric sex is a type of sexual intercourse that is sensual, meditative, and inspired by the teachings of the Tantra. Most Tantric practices do not involve the hands, for instance, breathwork, eye contact, massage, and slow sex. You could enjoy an orgasm during tantric sex through sexual intercourse or toys.

Orgasmic Breathing

Breathing exercises have always been good at connecting the whole body to ensure touch-free results. The orgasm depends on the mind so that the arousal may increase. You ought to first get into a comfortable position and think about your sexual fantasies may listen to an audio or watch some porn,

Clenching Muscles

You can have an orgasm while sitting. You clench and relax your muscles. It will feel like exercise to your body, and blood will rush to the genitals; hence the clitoris will get stimulated, and if you continue with the clenching, you will achieve an orgasm. You could also contract and relax the pelvic floor muscles. These are the muscles you contract and relax when you want to urinate. Contracting and relaxing the muscles is exercise, but you can achieve an orgasm.

Holding The Sex Toy With Your Thighs

So, you have a vibrator or a clitoral vibrator. You can make the vibrators work at your clitoris while holding them with your thighs. The downside of this style is that the toys were meant to be held by the hands, and it is unlikely that you will get the sensations you want. Very few people can orgasm with this style, but it is possible with the bigger vibrators.

Binaural Beats

These sensational beats can cause some women to have orgasms and some men to have erections because their bodies respond to the beats' vibrations. Some people say that the orgasms come as a surprise.

Fantasies

Sometimes our thoughts can make us orgasm, especially if the thoughts are erotic. So, the more you fantasy, the more you get aroused, and you soon have an orgasm. Note that orgasms do not always have to be in and around the genitals. Sometimes your energy reaches a peak. That peak is the orgasm. The climax of your erotic thoughts.

Conclusion

It is important to note that some orgasm techniques can work for some people and not others. Self-love even when not reaching an orgasm. Sometimes the technique may not help you get to an orgasm, but it can help you feel good. Do not be frustrated if a technique does not work for you. Try something else. When you are having sex or trying to have an orgasm, you should never forget how you felt before you got the orgasm or how you felt. It is never about the ending but the journey. You may try out the techniques for fun or to explore your body.
