An elegant, luxurious take on the classic Ben Wa ball, these perfectly spherical, subtly weighty,
ultra sleek blown glass treasures from the Icicles collection are a deliciously self-indulgent
way to prime for pleasure, strengthen sex muscles and increase sexual
awareness.
Long before they catapulted into the public eye thanks to a
titillating appearance in the ultra erotic Shades trilogy, ben wa
balls have held a place in history, both sexually and in health-related
scenarios. In Japan, elite courtesans were thought to wear the balls
constantly as a way to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, giving the
courtesan's 'pleasure quarters' a very literal meaning. Today, this type
of sexual tool is still used in a variety of ways, but most often, the
balls are used as kegel weights for vaginal strengthening and to
increase sexual awareness. The weighted balls help you exercise the
muscles in the pelvic floor responsible for sexual pleasure, while
keeping the vaginal walls
elastic and responsive to stimulation and pleasure.
This pretty blown glass set is ideally designed for customized use
and enjoyment. If you're a true beginner, you may want
to start out with a single ball, the set combined is 1.2 oz (34 grams), with
each bead
weighing in at .6 oz (17 grams). Once
you have the Balls inside you, in whichever combination of weight you
desire, they'll naturally pinpoint the muscles needed to create
a stronger pelvic floor, as you'll need to contract these muscles to
keep the bead(s) in place. For those who already practice kegels and
vaginal strengthening, the weighty spheres can help further tone and
highlight some of the more subtle contraction combinations and muscle
reactions.
Aside from the practical applications of this
fantastic system, the Balls are also a way to gain increased sexual awareness. Moving around
while wearing the beads creates a pleasant, subtle feeling of pleasure,
as the balls gently vibrate and jiggle,
naturally stimulating the vaginal area. Many women love the feeling of
the beads inside them, and find that it increases desire, making the
Balls a great way to get ready for sex. Since this set is so
incredibly discreet, you'll be able to wear it unbeknownst to
anyone, letting you get your workout (or simple pleasure) secretly and
enjoyably.
Thanks to it's
amazingly pleasurable, completely body safe properties, the seamless,
ultra smooth glass comprising the Balls has a long
list of benefits that beat out other materials in the industry; the
slick, smooth texture, and pleasurable weighty feel is only a start.
Safety is high on most toy users' list of priorities, so you'll be glad
to know that glass is one of the most body friendly materials
available. It's phthalate free, non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and the
hard, non-porous surface means that bacteria has nowhere to hide. Your
Balls can be easily cleaned and even sterilized, wash after each use
with soap and water, or pop in a pot of boiling water for a few
minutes. Safety and hygiene aside, glass feels unbelievable
good, it's highly sensitive to temperature, allowing it to warm
naturally to body temperature with use. You can also increase warm or
cool sensations by soaking in very warm or very cool water to create
exciting variations of temperature. You'll be able to use your choice of
lube, and you'll find that a little goes a long way, so you may
not need as much as usual. Avoid abrasive cleaners and store carefully
to avoid chipping. Storage pouch included.
The Small Icicles Ben-Wa Balls are 1 inch (25mm) in diameter, with a combined weight of 1.2oz (62g).
