Breast bondage precautions
The purpose of breast bondage is to enhance the appearance of the breasts, or to slightly change the position or appearance of the breasts. The most common bondage techniques lift and push the breast together just like a bra does.
There is the possibility of damage to the breast and nipple tissue during bondage of certain types, such as breast constriction, where the breast is encircled with a rope at the base. Another dangerous practice is breast binding, which forces the breast into a flattened position and may damage muscle structure, or can lead to nerve damage.
Any bondage of the breast or nipple which cuts off circulation is not recommended, it takes a scant fifteen to twenty minutes after loss of circulation to begin cell damage.
The breast is a complicated structure, designed to produce milk for infants, truly an amazing machine of nature. It contains a huge circulatory system and contains a lot of blood, a system of milk producing glands and milk storage reservoirs. The nipples contain a system of sensors that work in conjunction with the milk glands and contain an area of densely packed nerves, all which can be easily damaged by improper, careless or prolonged bondage. This damage can be deep inside the tissue, involving the glands, or milk ducts, and require surgery to correct. This is especially true for women with larger breasts, which contain more fat tissue, but also contain more blood, and more small capillaries.
Large breasts are easily put into the type of bondage which cuts off circulation, and are more likely to suffer internal damage. Any bondage which crushes the breast into a flattened position, forces the breast into an unnatural position, cuts off circulation of the breast or nipple, or is too tightly placed and left on for longer than fifteen minutes, can damage any of the many tissues or structures in the breast.
While in bondage, breasts or nipples should never lose color, turn blue, or become numb, these are all signs that the bondage is either put on incorrectly, too tight, or has cut off circulation. Never combine breast bondage and temporary piercing of the nipples, as the breast is under pressure during bondage, this is not safe at all. Never whip or flog the breasts while under pressure of bondage, being constricted swells the blood vessels and they can be easily broken by a blow. Never jerk or pull a breast or nipple into another position suddenly while it is in bondage. The practice of ‘weighting’ or attaching weights to breast bondage ropes or tying the person to something by the breasts should be avoided.
When using rope in scenes, there is the possibility of accidents, so here are some recommended “don’ts” for bondage: Don’t play when you’re not alert. Don’t play when tired or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Don’t try things you aren’t sure about. The front of the neck should never receive pressure of any kind. Don’t EVER leave a bondaged person alone, even for a few seconds. LISTEN to your partner, if they complain about lack of circulation or odd pains or sensations, check the bondage ties. DON’T LISTEN to your partner…. in other words, check and recheck bondage points for pinching, over tight wraps, signs of circulation loss, or ropes which may have moved from their original tie positions. Relying totally on your partners judgment while they are ‘high’ or in subspace is not a good idea. Always have available something which will easily cut the rope type you are using, bandage scissors with a flat blade at the bottom are best.
