Coaching packages of three, six and 12 sessions are also offered with a personal OM trainer 'to give you guidance and feedback to ensure your OM practice is attuned' and 'improve your stroke'. No money exchanges hands between the stroker and the strokee - this is essentially peer-to-peer pleasuring - but the people who partake will have had to pay £150 to attend a day-long course, which includes 'live demonstrations of the orgasm state by two advanced practitioners' and afterwards attendees will be invited to join 'circles' peopled by men and women open to giving and receiving OM. There is a rigorous protocol involved, including rubber gloves, lubricant and a concluding 'framing' conversation in which the two people involved discuss how they felt during the meditation. The woman receiving the OM will be naked from the waist down and lying in a nest of pillows. Apparently there are more nerve endings in this part of the clitoris than anywhere else, but although orgasm is not assured, deep, resonant and psychologically transformative sexual pleasure is promised. The process, which founder Nicole Daedone spent a number of years industriously perfecting, involves a clothed male or female lightly rubbing the upper left-hand quadrant of a woman's clitoris for exactly 15 minutes (usually timed on an iPhone). I would say that 20 per cent of them don't even know what a clitoris is,' says Martin.īack in San Francisco, you will find the headquarters of OneTaste, founded in 2001 and committed to the exploration of the female orgasm through the practice of Orgasmic Meditation.

They are trained at the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality in San Francisco in 'touch, breath and movement to become familiar with, articulate about and competent in the uses of profound ecstatic and erotic states'. She then just got up and put her robe on and left like nothing had happened.'īut until Edward relents, or Martin opens his clinic, women who want more than just a vigorous rubdown with scented oils need to venture to more avant-garde destinations, such as California - the only place in the world that gives official certification to 'sexological bodyworkers'. One of the female therapists I work with had a woman give herself her own happy ending at the end of the treatment - like she wasn't there. I was once walking through reception and a woman looked at me and said to the receptionist, "I'd like a treatment with him, please - whatever he does." She was then wildly inappropriate during the whole thing. Maybe it is the high-net-worth women I treat, but they're very forward with this stuff. 'Women just seem to be a bit ballsier than they used to be. Some will be more subtle, bringing up the idea of "exotic massage" and asking me if I know anything about it.' He mainly treats the wives of very rich men, as well as CEOs and women who run their own companies. I'm often asked to sort out a problem on the inner thigh one lady even said her "inguinal crease" had an issue.
