Navel play, an unknown sexual practice, allows you to inflame an erogenous zone of your body, often neglected. Prepare to be in the navel of the world for a few moments.
In the sex game, it’s hard to get bored! As long as the imagination allows it, curiosity is aroused, open-mindedness is part of it, there will always be a thousand and one ways to innovate, a thousand and one new sexual practices that are revealed as we get naked (literally). Lately it’s “Navel play” which is causing a lot of talk… And it is interested in a well-hidden part of our body whose effects you don’t even suspect! Visible to the naked eye but often hidden under our clothes, what is it really?
Whether all parts of the body can be erogenous, sexually speaking, there are areas that still remain unexplored. However, given the pleasure provided, it would be wrong to deprive yourself of it! Labeled, demonized, neglected or simply forgotten, most of the time, they are therefore not considered… And the navel is concerned.
It is he who is at the center of the practice of Navel Play ! Those who speak good English might have already guessed that. Indeed, in the language of Shakespeare, “navel” means “navel”and “play” means “Game”. Thus, the Navel Play consists quite simply of play and tickle your partner’s navel during sex ; foreplay included. Hands, fingers, tongue, an object such as a feather, an ice cube: all can be used to solicit the umbilicus and excite you. In the columns of Psychology Todaypsychologist Elmar Basse describes several ways to play with: “a small hollow hole in the middle of the body is just the right shape for the tongue and fingers, a nipple is also welcome, and even a penis can still lean on it.”

Navel: why is it an erogenous zone?
Tastes and colors can’t be explained, and even less when it comes to sex. Nevertheless, it may be interesting to understand why the navel, in particular, can provide feelings of extreme pleasure to those who get caught up in the game. Less famous than others erogenous zones popular such as boobsthe neckor even the earsyet it can generate more excitement than the latter.
The navel is actually a part of the body made up of many nerve fibers and endings, directly linked to the brain by the spinal cord, and therefore also linked to the bladder and urethra by extension. Doctor Christopher Hollingsworth, whose remarks were relayed by our colleagues from Health MagazineExplain : “The navel can stimulate not only the skin, but also the ‘inner lining’ fibers of your abdomen. So when you put your finger in your navel, it sends a signal to the fibers deeper in the abdominal cavity and to your spinal cord.”
In this sense, some health professionals even compare it to our genitals ! In the columns of U.S. Vicepsychologist Ruchi Ruuh claims that theumbilicus sharing “certain types of tissue with the genitals and can cause a distinct tickle in the latter.”
Beyond this purely scientific reason, it is also the imagination linked to this area which titillates and makes fantasize. Navel fetishists perceive it as a “little vagina”. Why ? Notably “because it bears a visual resemblance to the female sexual organ”according to Dr. Elmar Basse (Psychology Today).

Our tips for practicing Navel Play well
Among the followers of Navel Play, two teams are emerging: on the one hand, those who love uncleaned navel and as it is; on the other hand, those who prefer totally clean and prepared. So, there is really no pre-established rule, it all depends on your desires! But a few tips on how to get the best out of it without pulling on the rope (or the cord) in terms of hygiene.
If the person who has the navel touched can be exempted from washing the area beforehand (as long as both partners are consenting); on the other hand, it is preferable that the one who will tickle him cleans hands and fingers upstream. Indeed, these parts of the body contain many germs and microbes that could be transmitted to the beneficiary partner.
Also beware of people with long nails : they will have to be extra careful because the small extra centimeters brought by these “claws” involve more surfaces on which microbes can lodge and proliferate. So we wash our hands well before playing!
Other specialists go further by suggesting cutting said nails: the aim being to protect against possible scratches, cuts and wounds through which bacteria could infiltrate.

The navel is not an orifice like the others: unlike the vagina (8 to 12 cm deep), it is not very deep. The interest of the practice therefore does not lie not into penetration, and the goal is not necessarily to go all the way to the bottom. Pleasure is rather drawn from caresses and tickles practiced. The umbilicus is an area that we tickle, much more than we penetrate. During sex, you’ll finally have an excuse to gaze at your navel…without guilt. But be careful, always take turns; because sex is better when the pleasure is shared equally
NB: Of course, the navel is not a source of pleasure for everyone. If some are excited when stimulated, others, on the contrary, are frightened. The last, finally, do not feel anything when they are touched in this place. It’s up to you to test to challenge or see!
