Sensation bondage typically focuses on creating pleasurable sensations. This makes it an ideal entry-point for beginners interested in bondage. The submissive person typically experiences pleasure as they move against the restraints, due to the way they are tied as well as when they are stimulated by their dominant partner. While pleasure is often the focus, painful sensations can be a part of sensation bondage if both parties consent.
As with all bondage experiences, it’s crucial for the dominant to carefully monitor their submissive, especially when playing with pain. The restraints should never compromise circulation or breathing. A safe word and motion should be established before play so the submissive can halt the sensation bondage session for any reason.
