Our body hides numerous surprises. And this is one of them! Ever heard of back/butt dimples? Those small holes or dimples formed on the lower back of women are called dimples of Venus or “Venus Holes.” In case of men, they are called “Apollo Holes.”

Venus Holes

These holes are created by a small ligament stretching between the posterior superior iliac spine and the skin. They are usually found where the two bones link at the pelvis. There is no muscle in the area, and the skin stretches over the gap, so a small indentation or ‘hole’ appears on the skin just above the waistline.

Venus holes are interpreted as signs of beauty, therefore, named after Venus, the Roman goddess of beauty and love.

Not everybody has these beautiful indentations. And you can’t develop Venus holes – you are either born with them or you don’t have them at all.

So what does all this mean?

These holes have health benefits. The “Venus Holes” are a sign of good circulation and a healthy body. They also have a sexual benefit. Individuals with Venus Holes have been known to achieve orgasms easier. This is because Venus holes facilitate good circulation and because of their strategic location around the pelvic area, climaxing becomes easy. People with the Apollo or Venus dimples have sex more often because they are easily excited and it’s usually more pleasurable.

You cannot get these holes with exercise!

Since they are located in an area where there is no muscle, it is impossible to get these dimples with exercise. So, it isn’t something you can “work your way towards”, unlike abs.

Hence, these holes indicate healthy circulation which in turn brings a healthy body and mind and a healthy overall lifestyle.
