Description
The most powerful reflex points on the body are the sexual organs. While the practice of reflexology is normally associated with massage of the feet, in SEXUAL REFLEXOLOGY, Mantak Chia, gives applications for using the sexual reflex points in lovemaking to transform sexual intercourse into a form of ecstatic acupressure. By combining the classic Taoist sexual texts with modern reflexology theory, the author provides a unique opportunity for couples to practice the sex act as an act of healing. Mantak Chia shows how to evaluate a person's sexual energy potential as well as the size and shape of the sexual organs to determine a couple's compatibility. In addition to the specific ecstatic acupressure exercise instructions, he also provides thoughtful commentary on ancient Taoist practices for dealing with sexual energy, revealing how we can all use our sexual essence to create healthy and loving relationships.

Reviews"Explicit illustrations, insightful text and titillating techniques from 14th-century Chinese texts bring innovative fitness possibilities into the bedchamber." * Nexus, March/April 2004 * "With the high incidence of perversion, abuse, and exploitation in our time, it is refreshing to see sexuality being celebrated and brought forward as a healing element." * Claus Sproll, Liliopoh the spirit in life, Issue 37 Vol. 9, Fall 2004 * "[Chia] provides a unique opportunity for couples to practice sexual intimacy as an act of healing." * Branches of Light, Spring-Summer-Fall 2005 * "Mantak Chia and William U. Wei note early in the book that Daoists regard the use of sexual energy not as a moral but as a health issue. They explore and explain the yin and yang of the sexes that leaves so many confused and dismayed. . . . It goes into great depth about physiological aspects of reflexology, sexual exercise, and general compatability, and details a range of practices and postures that address the health and general well-being of sexual partners." * Reg Little, New Dawn, No. 116, Sep/Oct 2009 *
