Sensory deprivation

Reducing one or more senses, often sight, to heighten the others and deepen a partner experience.

Sensory deprivation involves removing or limiting senses, most commonly sight with a blindfold, but also hearing or touch, to intensify what remains. With sight gone, every touch and sound becomes sharper and more surprising, which heightens anticipation and sensation. It also deepens the sense of surrender and trust. Deprivation is often combined with sensation play and bondage, and like all play depends on clear communication.
