A client of mine, now in his 30s, shared something that had happened to him back when he was in his 20s, on a holiday with his girlfriend at the time.
Everything was going well until they tried to be intimate, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get an erection. He was left worried and thinking a lot about it.
After returning home, about two weeks later, everything went back to functioning normally. But the situation stayed on his mind, and he kept trying to figure out what had happened during that trip.Until he finally worked it out. The mattress at the place they had stayed was extremely uncomfortable. Right after the first night, he started feeling pain in his lower back, just above the tailbone. And the more nights he slept on that bed, the worse the pain got.
Once he was back in his own bed and his usual routine, his body quickly began to recover, and the pain disappeared.
That area of the back really does have a significant impact on sexual response. People with tension or injuries in the lower back often experience a decrease in erectile function, regardless of age.
Taking care of the spine, especially the lower back, is also a way of taking care of sexual health. A good mattress and regular back care really do make a difference.
