Bondage Toys

Bondage toys were traditionally used by lovers playing S & M games. Nowadays, however, bondage toys are fast becoming a staple item in any sex toy-box. Sex play can be so much fun when experimenting with bondage.

The thrill of bondage play revolves around the fantasy of being punished or punishing someone, or the transfer of power to a partner, rather than the real loss of control or experience of pain. This can involve being tied up, spanking, blindfolding, teasing, or even gagging a partner. For some this is used to spice up their sex life, for others, it is a way of life. For the submissive partner, it can be exhilerating knowing not knowing what your partner is going to do next if you are tied up and blindfolded. For the dominant partner, the thrill is in the feeling of power and control.

Bondage play is centred around role playing for example, naughty schoolchild and teacher, or police officer and prisoner. It can be both a visually and sensually appealing experience.

The safest and most accessible types of bondage toys including restraints which should always have a safety release. Try bondage toys made with velcro fastenings. Restraints should be worn loosely and should be comfortable. Ultimate Adult Shop stocks handcuffs made from metal, chrome, nylon and leather. Always make sure your partner is restrained in a comfortable way. Make sure blood flow and breathing is not restricted. Do not leave your partner's arms or legs suspended in the air for too long as blood flow will be restricted. Never leave someone alone when their movement is restricted. Make sure all bondage toys can be removed quickly. Take your time restraining your partner. For discipline, the most commonly used toys are paddles, light whips and nipple clamps.

Dressing up can also heighten the sense of fantasy and eroticism. Ultimate Adult Shop stocks a wide range of fantasy uniforms including Police Woman and Miss Teen Schoolgirl uniform as well as leather, latex and pvc clothing.

Blindfolds and masks are an ideal way of increasing the sexual tension during bondage play.

When using bondage whips, always proceed with caution and remember never ever strike: directly on a bone (spine, collar bone, elbows, knee caps andshins), the neck or head, the lower back or the back of the knees. Start of striking lightly and always rest after spanking to allow the sensation to register in your partner's mind. Rub your partner's skin just after smacking with your hand or other soft object. Make sure you are aware of your partner's boundaries. Discuss the level of pain before commencing any bondage play. Is a light tap enough, or does your partner want a stinging sensation?

Use 'safe words' which can be used during play which means that when used all action must stop immediately.
