Basics:

• Never leave someone alone in bondage!
• Don’t do rope under the influence of drugs/alcohol!
• Falling is always a risk so be prepared.
• Only gag someone who you can easily read non-verbal cues with.
• Make sure the gag is easy to take off for checking in.
• Always make sure to have cutting tools handy.

Nerve locations and checks

• https://www.remedialropes.com and https://www.shibari-study.com/safety-course
• For TK: Most common problems result from lower wraps, rope under the armpit and shoulder straps however everybody is different.
• In the event of nerve issue: untie gently, give the limp time to rest and recover. Do not massage or compress it. Take an anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen and add B12 supplements to your diet.
