Aneros makes hands-free prostate massagers, also called P-spot or prostate stimulators, that move with your own muscle contractions. Its patented Helix, Eupho, MGX, Maximus and Progasm shapes have defined the category since the first Pro-State massager.

About Aneros
Aneros began with a request. A health professional asked inventor Jiro Takashima for a device that people with prostates could use at home. After months of research, he designed an anatomical massager, sold as the Pro-State by his company, High Island Health. Users soon reported something unexpected: intense, full-body prostate orgasms. The company leaned into that, and the Aneros brand was born.
Aneros is based in Houston, Texas, and celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2020. The Aneros Forum gave users a place to compare notes and techniques. MEL Magazine reported it had more than 60,000 registered users. In 2022 Takashima was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame for founding the category.
Awards and recognition
Aneros has a long run of industry awards. The Trident Series won Sex Toy of the Year (Non-Powered) at the 2019 XBIZ Awards. XBIZ then named Aneros its Sexual Health & Wellness Brand of the Year every year from 2020 to 2025.
Its products win too. At the 2026 AVN O Awards, Aneros was named Best Pleasure Product Manufacturer (Medium). Eupho Syn V took Outstanding New Product and Outstanding Anal Product. In 2024, Helix Syn V won Outstanding Anal Product and the Blue Maximus Syn Trident won Outstanding Packaging. The PSY won Best Specialty Product at the 2025 XMA Awards.
Aneros product lines
Aneros sorts its range by shape first, then by version. Choose the shape that suits your body, then the version that suits your taste.
Classic, Syn, Syn V and Trident: what the names mean
Most Aneros shapes come in several versions, and the suffix tells you which. Classic models are rigid, medical-grade plastic, the original firm feel. Syn models wrap a rigid core in soft, velvet-touch silicone. Syn V adds vibration and a wireless remote. Trident models use Multi-Axial Motion Architecture, a reworked tab design that lets the massager move in more directions. The Trident Series won Sex Toy of the Year (Non-Powered) at the 2019 XBIZ Awards.
Helix: the all-rounder
Helix is the most popular starting point. Its angled head sits against the prostate while an external arm presses on the perineum. Helix Classic is about 10 cm insertable in medical-grade plastic. Helix Syn and Helix Syn Trident add silicone, and Helix Trident uses the multi-axial tabs. Helix Syn V vibrates, with eight patterns, three intensities and up to six hours per charge. It won Outstanding Anal Product at the 2024 AVN O Awards. Among our prostate massagers, Helix covers the most versions of one shape.
Eupho: slim and responsive
Eupho is the slimmest Aneros prostate shape, about 0.75 inches wide in Classic form. A slim body responds to small muscle movements, so many experienced users find it more sensitive. Eupho Syn and Eupho Syn Trident add silicone. Eupho Syn V adds a 2.2 cm head, ten vibration patterns at four intensities and a remote. It can also be used unpowered. Eupho Syn V won Outstanding New Product and Outstanding Anal Product at the 2026 AVN O Awards.
MGX: ribbed for extra sensation
MGX has a medium head and a ridged stem, so it stimulates the anal canal as well as the prostate. MGX Classic is about 10 cm insertable in medical-grade ABS. MGX Trident adds dual external tabs for the perineum and the Kundalini spot, a point just behind the perineum. MGX Syn Trident brings velvet-touch silicone, and the MGX Syn Trident Blue Promo Kit is a limited blue-colourway edition. MGX suits adventurous beginners who want more texture than Helix.
Maximus: more fullness
Maximus is for users who want a fuller feel than Helix or MGX. Maximus Trident is about 2.54 cm wide and 10.16 cm insertable, with multi-axial tabs for the perineum and Kundalini spot. The larger head gives broader contact. A limited-edition Blue Maximus Syn Trident won Outstanding Packaging at the 2024 AVN O Awards. Maximus is best after some experience with smaller Aneros shapes.
Progasm: the largest classic shape
Progasm is the biggest classic Aneros design. Progasm Classic is about 4.25 inches insertable and 1.1 inches wide, with a bulbous tip, an enlarged perineum tab and a Kundalini tab. Progasm Jr keeps the shape at 3.5 inches insertable for those who want the head without the full length. Aneros has also sold Progasm in a black finish, Black Ice. Progasm is aimed at intermediate and advanced users.
PSY: the adjustable massager
PSY is Aneros's first adjustable, non-powered prostate massager. It is silicone, about 3.25 inches insertable, with contact points you can reposition to suit your body. That means one massager can be tuned rather than replaced as you learn what works. PSY won Best Specialty Product at the 2025 XMA Awards. It suits experienced users who already know which angle they prefer.
Vice 2 and DeVice: powered and handled
Vice 2 is Aneros's flagship vibrator. It has two motors, one inside and one on the perineum, with 18 patterns at four intensities and a wireless remote. It is about 4.5 inches insertable. DeVice is different. It is a semi-rigid silicone massager with two graduated 3 cm bulges and a handle. You can guide it by hand or let it work hands-free. Both sit at the more advanced end of our sex toys for men.
Peridise: slim anal stimulators
Peridise is a set of slim, dual-bulb anal stimulators rather than a prostate massager. Each piece is about 4 inches long, in graduated widths. The two-piece set measures 22 mm and 18 mm wide, and the four-pack runs from about 0.63 to 0.86 inches. They are FDA-approved ABS, made in the USA, and work with natural muscle contractions. Compared with standard butt plugs, Peridise is built to move, not just to fill.
Aneros for Her and steel: Vivi, Evi, Muze and Tempo
Aneros also makes toys for vulva owners and for all bodies. Vivi is a wearable G-spot stimulator and Kegel exerciser with two motors, 12 patterns and Bluetooth app control with guided pelvic floor programs. Evi is a hands-free silicone Kegel trainer. Muze is a 4-inch stainless steel bullet with nine settings. Tempo is a stainless steel anal stimulator for P-spot or G-spot play. Vivi and Evi sit well beside our love eggs and Kegel exercisers.
Sessions and Prelude: preparation and care
Aneros makes its own prep and care range. Sessions is a water-based lube, sold as a thinner liquid or a thick 125 ml gel, free from glycerin, propylene glycol and parabens. Prelude is a silicone enema bulb with a 295 ml pleated bulb, a one-way slow-flow valve and an 11.5 cm nozzle with a safety flange. If you prefer another brand, choose from our water-based lubes, as water-based lube suits both plastic and silicone Aneros models.
How hands-free prostate massage works
An Aneros massager does not vibrate on its own unless it is a Syn V or Vice model. Instead, it moves when you do. The head rests on the prostate, about 5 to 7 cm inside the rectum, toward the front of the body. The external tab sits on the perineum, the skin between the scrotum and the anus. When you gently squeeze and relax your pelvic floor, the massager rocks between those two points.
That is why Aneros sessions take time. The sensation builds slowly as you learn which contractions move the massager best. Many users describe the first few sessions as practice. Our Aneros prostate massager guide has more on getting started.
Materials and build
Classic models are rigid, non-porous medical-grade ABS plastic. They are easy to clean and give the firmest, most direct contact. Syn models wrap that rigid core in velvet-touch silicone, which feels softer and warmer. Syn V and Vice models add sealed motors and rechargeable batteries. Tempo and Muze are stainless steel, which holds warmth or cold for temperature play.
Clean every model with warm water and a toy cleaner after use. Use only water-based lube with Syn models, as silicone lube can damage silicone. Classic models can take either.

Choosing your first Aneros
Most people start with Helix. Helix Classic is the simplest, and Helix Syn is the softer choice. If you prefer slim, try Eupho. If you want texture, MGX adds ribbing. Move to Maximus or Progasm only once smaller shapes feel easy. If you want vibration from day one, choose Helix Syn V or Eupho Syn V.
Then think about how you will use it. For long, slow solo sessions, a Classic or Syn model works best. For partner play, Vice 2's remote lets someone else take control.
Once you find a shape you like, you can stay with it. For example, you could start with Helix Classic and add Helix Syn V later, for the same fit with vibration on top.
Who Aneros suits, and who should look elsewhere
Aneros suits men and people with prostates who want to try prostate play, and experienced users who want a range they can grow into. It also suits couples, through Vice 2 and the Aneros for Her range.
It is not for everyone. If you want instant, strong vibration, a hands-free Classic model will feel slow at first. If you want quick sessions, Aneros rewards patience more than speed. And if you have a medical condition affecting the prostate, speak to a doctor before using any prostate toy.
Please read — safety first. Use plenty of water-based lube and go slowly, as the anal muscles need time to relax. Use only toys with an external tab or flared base, which every Aneros massager has. Start with a smaller shape such as Helix before moving to Maximus or Progasm. Stop if you feel sharp pain, and do not force a session. Wash before and after every use, and dry charging contacts on Syn V and Vice models before charging. This information is general in nature and is not medical advice. If you have a health condition or ongoing discomfort, stop use and speak with a qualified health professional. |
