Electric Q&A with Mistress Cassidy & slave allan

I think that this Q and A will have some shocking revelations. You could say that you got a jolt out of it. Or maybe you will get all charged up. And I better stop making bad puns before Mistress decides to light my butt cheeks up. If you didn't get a light bulb going off over your head the topic today is electricity. More to the point using specific toys to deliver electrical stimulation during a session to tease and train your sub. So without using another pun, we hand things over to Mistress Cassidy.

 Groan, really slave? 
Before we begin discussing electric play, I'd like to issue a disclaimer. I love electric play and have been offering it in my sessions for about a decade now. While I feel confident in how my tools work, and how to use them properly; I am not an electrician or a doctor. I initially learned how to use my TENS unit through my chiropractor, who was aware that the tutorial was for the purpose of BDSM play. While I don't care for receiving electric shock, I also allowed a partner to extensively test my equipment on me before ever using it with a submissive. I periodically submit to equipment checks to ensure everything continues to work properly and as expected. If a reader was interested in learning to use electric equipment I would strongly suggest that they seek out in-person instructions from a professional. 

 1: What is electrostimulation or a phrase I just read this weekend electrosex?

 Electro-stimulation and electrosex are just what they sound like, using an electric pulse to create a pleasurable sensation or a painful sensation that one happens to find pleasure in experiencing.  

2: Before going too far, Mistress. Could you tell us the dangers or safety concerns involved with electro stimulation and how to keep a session from going terribly wrong? 

 While I think of electric play, with proper equipment, as being a moderately safe form of play, it poses some significant risks for some people. For people with heart conditions and people with epilepsy, it is, in my opinion, a high-risk activity. Electric play with people with those conditions falls outside of my comfort level, but I don't propose to tell others where their risk-taking meter ought to be set. Ages ago, I had a client create a DIY TENS unit, as much as I wanted to learn about electric play, I declined his offer to be a guinea pig. I believe electric play must be with manufactured devices that meet current safety standards for personal use. My TENS unit is what my chiropractor recommended. There are many inexpensive models available that are safe and appropriate for at home use. 

 3: What is a TENS unit, and how is it used in a session? 

 TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electric Nerve Stimulation.  I have an extensive collection of attachments that can be used with my unit. 

 4: What is a violet wand, and why are they so popular?

As I understand it, violet wands began as something of a medical and beauty product, that they were marketed as a way to have clearer skin through increasing the blood flow to an area, or something like that. As far as I know, they have proven unsuccessful in that endeavor but some kinky bastard saw their pervertable potential. I lack the technical terms to best describe what they are but I assume my readers have access to google. 

 5: You said once that you mostly session with males. So what is an electric urethral sound and how does it work?

 An electric urethral sound could be used on a woman as well. Again for technical specifics, try google. Simple description? It's a sound rod that is attached to a TENS unit that can be inserted into the urethral opening and then an electric charge can be sent through it.

6: Sorry Mistress I was ready to wrap it up with 5 questions when this popped into my head. I have been researching TENS unit for my vanilla pain relief. In that research, I found a TENS unit controlled with a smartphone. I am interested in it so my question is. Do you think it can be used as a pervertable to be used in a long distance training and would you think it would be safe?

 Hmm. This is the first time I have come across this idea. I'm sure it could be used for long distance training. I suspect it would be relatively safe, but as it is new to me I'd want to consider it longer and I would try to seek out some guidance from a Domme or sub who had first-hand experience with it.
