Expanding the toolkit: Why we created Rush

Expanding the toolkit: Why we created Rush

The Essensual Vibe has long been our benchmark for what a personal massager should be: grounded, powerful and capable of delivering deep, resonant sensation. It is a tool built for exploration and, as many in our community have shared, the gold standard for reaching a reliable, full-body peak.

However, intimacy is rarely a one note experience. Just as our emotional needs shift throughout the month, our physiological needs for touch also evolve. This is why we are introducing Rush.

Rush is an air-pulse clitoral stimulator designed to sit alongside the Essensual Vibe, not replace it. It offers a different tactile language - one centered on rhythm, localized pressure, and a unique sensation of "weightlessness."

Your body isn't a fixed destination

The core of our philosophy at LBDO is that your needs are not static. The mistake often made in sexual wellness is the search for the "one perfect tool" that works every time.

Pleasure thrives on sensory variety. If we only ever use one type of stimulation, like the consistent vibration of the Vibe, our nervous system can occasionally become accustomed to that specific frequency. This isn't a flaw in the product; it’s a feature of human biology. By introducing a new sensation like air-pulse, we "wake up" the nerve endings with a different kind of input. Rush provides the contrast that keeps your sensory experience feeling fresh and intentional.

How air-pulse complements vibration

To understand why you might want both in your collection, it helps to look at how they interact with the body differently.

  • The Essensual Vibe (vibration): This tool is about deep, broad energy. It stimulates the entire clitoral complex - both the external glans and the internal bulbs - through a consistent, powerful thrum. It is ideal for a slow build and a grounded connection.

  • Rush (air-pulse): Rush uses rapidly changing air pressure to create a rhythmic "pulsing" or "suction-like" effect. It is indirect stimulation, meaning it targets the thousands of nerve endings in the clitoris without the direct friction of a vibrating head. The result is a lighter, more "electric" sensation that many find particularly effective for a focused climax.

The art of the transition

The most effective way to use these tools is often together. Intimacy is a narrative, and different chapters require different tempos.

Many find that starting a session with the Essensual Vibe provides the broad, warming foundation the body needs to open up. As arousal increases and the body craves more rhythmic, localized attention, transitioning to Rush allows for a sharper, more focused peak. It is the difference between the steady rhythm of a drum and the soaring notes of a lead instrument; they are at their best when they work in harmony.

Why Rush, why now?

Launching Rush in the lead up to Valentine’s Day is a nod to the idea of self-investment. Whether you are navigating the holiday with a partner or on your own terms, having a diverse toolkit allows you to meet your body exactly where it is on any given night.

If you’ve already mastered the deep, resonant language of the Essensual Vibe, Rush is the next step in your exploration. It’s a tool designed for those moments when you want to feel something different, something rhythmic, and something entirely new.
