Bondage & Physical Restraints

Goal: Understanding safe bondage practices, nerve safety, and physical restraint protocols.

1. Safety Principles of Bondage

  • Nerve & Circulation Protection: Never bind tightly across nerve pathways (radial, ulnar, brachial plexus) or joint bends. Regularly check fingers/toes for warmth, color, and sensation.
  • Quick-Release Knots & Safety Shears: Always keep EMT shears or safety shears within arm's reach. Never leave a bound partner unattended.
  • Material Selection: Use soft cotton, jute, silk, or padded leather. Avoid thin nylon or cords that can cause friction burns or cut into skin.
