Yes, hands-free orgasms are a thing.
Here are a bunch of techniques you’re free to experiment with if you’re curious.
There’s more emphasis on how the other parts of your body aid in yoursexual pleasure.
There’s no one way to define what counts as “hands-free.”
If you aren’t using your hands to stimulate your body, then you could consider it hands-free.
Orgasmic breathing
Orgasmic breathing is the practice of conscious breathing to experience sexual pleasure.
By focusing on your breathing, you’re able to channel your energy through your body.
Instead of restricting your pleasure, you make space for every kind of sensation.

Communicate with your partner about boundaries, safe words, and expectations before exploring.
Tantric sex

Water play
Turns out, water is a great source of stimulation for some people.
The next time you’re in the bath or the shower, get creative!
Experiment with the water pressure on different parts of your body.
Zero in on the sensations you feel.
Toys and hot tubs are also in play.
For people with vulvas, be careful not to spray anything directly into the vagina.
Using a showerhead on the clitoris or positioning yourself under a running faucet can feel great, though.
Hump and grind furniture
Clothes are optional for this technique.
Grab a pillow or rub your pubis against the sofa.
Find a piece of furniture that does it for you and go with it.
Clothes are still optional, and it’s possible for you to throw in a few bites or kisses.
Nipple play
Some people canorgasm from nipple playalone.
Feel free to wander around to other areas of your body with a tool or toy of some kind.
Or include your partner and do a little nipple play with them.
See what happens when you let your mouth do the talking.
Sex toys
Find a toy that works for the experience you’re looking for.
Core workouts
Coregasms are orgasms you experience from working out.
Though they tend to happen accidentally and aren’t that common, they can happen to anyone.
They can happen to anyone,including women.
“We just need to work a bit to get reconnected to that function.”
“Having them pressed against the bed can cause physical stimulation and therefore erotic subconscious thoughts.”
You may need to position yourself in a certain way to get the right angle.
Then, the vibrations from the turbulence do the genital stimulation for you.
Scissoring
Almost like humping your partner but not quite.
The goal of scissoring is friction.
This technique is all about genital-on-genital contact.
No hands, no toys.

Yes, you might think yourself to orgasm.

If you’re watching with your partner, you’re free to also use their hands for stimulation.
When you’re comfortable with your orgasms in general, hands-free orgasms may come more naturally.
Get aroused beforehand
The best thing to do is to treat this like any other sexual experience.
You’ll want to do things that make you feel sexy, relaxed, and comfortable.
If you’re having sex with a partner, let them know how you see them participating.
If you want to try hands-free for the first time without your partner, awesome.
If you want to try hands-free the next time with them, super.
Either is OK, but talk with them anyway.
Be patient with yourself
Hands-free orgasms are like any other act of sex and pleasure.
Staying in the moment and being graceful with yourself is crucial to the experience.
No matter how many times you’ve explored hands-free techniques, patience is vital.

On that note, “Not everything is for everybody,” says Stewart.
If you don’t enjoy a technique, then move on.
Listen to your body.
Hands-free orgasm is one of the many ways we get to explore and play with sensations.
Anyone is capable of experiencing pleasure in new ways that feel erotic to them.
All it takes is a little curiosity.
