Sensory deprivation games can lead to an altered state of sexual awareness in which perceptions are sharpened and sensations become even more erotic and exciting.
“Sensory deprivation, in BDSM, is achieved through the deliberate use of basic objects such as blindfolds, hoods or earplugs in order to reduce or eliminate the natural ability to receive information with our senses, and thus achieve even more powerful and stimulating play sessions.”
Sensory deprivation has often been used in BDSM as a means to make controlled erotic play even more exciting, feeding the other senses and increasing the perception of body boundaries.
We have often heard stories about how blind people develop finer hearing or how deaf people sharpen their sight and learn to read lips. Without going to that extreme, imagine the sensation of being touched, caressed or even spanked while being deprived of sight. The sensations intensify and even the simplest caress can take your breath away.
Uncertainty is another element of sensory deprivation games. Not knowing what is going on around you, when you are going to be touched, where you can be caressed… all are elements that can help you enjoy more intense orgasms than usual or reach a higher degree of subspace.
If you want to try it...5 tips on sensory deprivation:
Tip #1 – Experiment and negotiate. As with all experimentation, make sure all parties have discussed in advance everything that will and will not be done, and specifically set safety words and signals to be used if necessary. Experimentation is healthy and fun, but as with all forms of BDSM, everyone needs to be aware of the risks.
Tip # 2 – Test the toys. It is a good idea to test the equipment before the session starts. For example, use the earplugs to find out what their limit may be, if they can hear something or if the deprivation is total, etc. Also test the blindfold; make sure that it fulfills its function (if shadows can be seen or if on the contrary you prefer it to be totally opaque, that kind of thing. And make sure above all that it is comfortable, if you want to create an atmosphere of discomfort you can use other methods in combination.
Tip #3 – Be aware of the space. If the private person is expected to move around the scene while blindfolded (e.g. following amusing and stimulating commands), make sure that it takes place in surroundings that are familiar or that they have at least been able to get an idea of how many ‘steps’ it takes to get to an object or how far away it is. In any case it is important to remember before and during the scene that we must modern with caution. On the other hand, the sense of touch will feel more developed so you will be able to “navigate” the space with this additional help. On the other hand, if it is the first time you play with a bandage, it is not necessary to do a great amount of movement, but to get used to it, get used to it and enjoy the sensations and not to worry about hitting yourself with objects.
Tip #4 – Take it one step at a time. Do youthink you’re a tough guy or a hot chick? Are you sure? By restricting some senses the body becomes much more sensitive. If we also combine sensory deprivation
Tip #5 – Be creative. Sensory deprivation is simple. It can be accomplished with many common elements:
For the ear, some headphones with a bit of cotton, or (recommended) some swimming earplugs will do the job. For vision, a tie, pillowcases, scarves often make great improvised blindfolds in our games. Learning which elements work (or don’t) is part of a very fun process, the important thing is to play smart and that any test doesn’t end up costing you an arm or leg!

An example of a game:
“In an intimate, quiet place, a bare neck that is traversed by a gentle caress that contrasts with an abrupt twist: A blindfold settles over the eyes and the world becomes darker but the hearts beat faster. Sounds become sharper but the feeling of helplessness grows and grows. The caresses continue, now the caress itself feels more intense. Wristbands clasp the helpless hands behind their backs, a necklace is wrapped around the naked neck.
At that moment everything becomes relative. Where will the next contact take place? Will it be soft? Will it be loud? As if that were not enough, soft earplugs are placed in the ears. The information is limited, it is no longer possible to intuit where anything is, disorientation arrives.
