Collection: Sensory Deprivation in Kink and BDSM
Have you heard of a sensory deprivation kink? Sensory deprivation is exactly what it sounds like - when you deprive the body of its ability to use its senses. The most simple example most of us have tried is a blindfold. However, like kinksters tend to do, sensory deprivation can include a lot more items when you bring it into the bedroom.
Why do sensory deprivation and how is sensory deprivation used in BDSM? When you take away the body's ability to use some of its senses, the remaining senses get stronger. When someone can't see, for example, every touch feels more erotic - and every sound is more noticeable. Putting this idea into action during sex leads us to the sensory deprivation kink - where you restrict some senses in order to make other senses more powerful for sexual teasing.
Of course, we've already talked about the most popular sensory deprivation method: blindfolds. Easy and simple to experiment with, quite a few couples have already discovered the erotic power of sensory deprivation with just a simple piece of fabric.
Sensory deprivation doesn't stop there, though! Sensory deprivation kink activities can include quite a few other toys. Something as simple as kinky restraints are considered sensory deprivation as well - since they take away your sense of touch. With something like kinky restraints, the more you can reduce someone's ability to move and touch, the more intense it will feel. (A Sportsheets Under the Bed Restraint System offers adjustable straps, so you can securely bind someone to the bed at the start of your sensory deprivation scene!)
Mouth gags also fall under the sensory deprivation kink - since they take away the ability to speak. You can use something slim - like a bit gag like the Quickie Bit Gag to allow for more speech - or something larger - like a ball gag like the Sportsheets Breathable Ball Gag - to reduce speech even further.
Once you have your partner bound up and deprived of some of their senses, don't forget to take advantage of it! You'll want to take advantage of your partner's vulnerable state to make your activities feel even more orgasmic than usual.
This can be a great time for a warm, sensual massage (like with one of our massage candles!), or it can be a great time to experiment with a feather tickler or a Tantric Touch Massage Kit. Body safe sex toys or other sexual pleasure can feel even more intense while your partner is under sensory deprivation, so make sure to use it to your (and their!) advantage!
Here at Kinkly Shop, we have everything you could need for sensory deprivation. Still have more questions? Just reach out; we'd be happy to help!
