Mummification

Mummification involves wrapping the body completely in materials like plastic wrap, duct tape, leather, rubber sheets, or bandages. The person is typically covered from head to toe, though with breathing passages clearly maintained.

This intense form of sensory deprivation creates total immobilization and can produce profound psychological effects including altered states of consciousness. The feeling of complete encasement, restricted movement, and warmth creates a unique experience that many find deeply relaxing or arousing. Due to the extreme restriction, temperature regulation, regular checking, and quick-release options are essential safety considerations.

About the category Bondage

Bondage involves consensually restricting a partner's movement using rope, cuffs, restraints, other materials, or even just mental (by command/suggestion). This practice can range from simple wrist ties to elaborate full-body harnesses and suspension.

The appeal lies in the physical sensation of restraint, the visual aesthetic, the psychological elements of surrender and control, and the heightened sensations that often come with restricted movement. Safety considerations include maintaining circulation, having emergency release methods, avoiding nerve pressure points, and regular check-ins with the restrained person.

Bondage can be practiced as a standalone activity or combined with other forms of play, making it one of the most versatile and common elements in BDSM.
