Mind fuck

Another common element of DS is the mind fuck. Mind fucks are a kind of trickery, illusion, or gaming with the bottom's mind. Sometimes mind fucks deceive the bottom into believing that whatever is going on is real when it is not. Thus, a common mindfuck is for the top to show the bottom a sharp knife, but then substitute a dull item (like a letter opener) before running the blade over a nipple or inserting the item into the bottom's cunt. Alternatively, the bottom might discover afterwards that the situation was worse than the bottom believed at the time. Yet another kind of mind fuck is for the top to cause the bottom mild embarrassment or confusion, tripping the bottom in his or her own words. More generally, mind fucks include any sort of mental manipulation.

Mummification

Mummification is often used to enhance a feeling of total bodily helplessness, and incorporated with sensation play.
