Absence of Orgasm - Treatment

There are women who have never had an orgasm in their lives, and there are others who just fail to have orgasms a great deal of the time. However, today most of these women can be helped by appropriate sex therapy. So far the best known of these therapies is that devised by Masters and Johnson. In their intensive short-term program, they treated non-orgasmic women together with their partners by means of intensive counseling and indirectly supervised exercises.

The counseling aimed at restructuring the couple's approach to sex and to each other.
The exercises were specifically designed to unblock the inhibited sexual responses.

Obviously, there is no substitute for individual personal treatment, and, in this course, we cannot attempt to offer anything like a do-it-yourself sex therapy program. However, for the sake of general information, we can at least describe some of the physical exercises that therapists recommend for non-orgasmic women.
