I think the word is sensual.  Breastfeeding is a sensual experience, as is
sex a sensual experience.  But breastfeeding and sex do not utilize the
same senses.
Taking a bubble bath is a sensual experience.
When a seven-month old puts plastic toy keys in his mouth, that is a
sensual experience- it could hardly be described as sexual.  We are even
told that when a young child masterbates it is more of a sensual than
sexual experience for him.  He does it because it is interesting and feels
good, not because he gets an orgasm.

Just because something feels good and utilizes our senses does not make it
sexual.
