Full Suspension

Full Suspension refers to a specific type of bondage technique used in BDSM that involves lifting the entire body of a person off the ground, typically using various types of rigging and equipment such as ropes, harnesses, or chains. This method creates a unique sensation of weightlessness and vulnerability, allowing the suspended individual to experience a heightened state of awareness and submission.

In Full Suspension, the individual’s body is supported only by the rigging, which can be configured in numerous ways to provide different levels of comfort, safety, and aesthetic appeal. Common setups may include suspending the person from a ceiling beam or specialized suspension frame, ensuring that the distribution of weight is even to minimize strain on any one part of the body.

Safety is paramount in Full Suspension, as improper rigging or techniques can lead to physical harm. Practitioners should be knowledgeable about body mechanics, knots, and the equipment being used. It’s critical to have a clear understanding of the individual’s limits, medical conditions, and to ensure that there is a safe method for descent in case of an emergency.

An example of Full Suspension could be a scene where an individual is secured with a harness that supports their torso and limbs, lifted into the air while their legs are spread. This position could enhance feelings of submission and arousal, emphasizing trust between partners and the consensual nature of the experience.
