Because it's slippery on skin, ice will nicely slide down the skin and nestle in low recesses in the body - such as the navel (seen here) when a bottom is lying on their back, or into the small of their back when they're lying on their stomach.

Ice play can be considered a form of temperature play or sensation play.

Frequently used in combination with fire or heat to create contrasting sensations, it can also be used for torture.

Ice dildos

Some BDSM practitioners will freeze water inside a condom (often with the aid of a cardboard tube to retain the shape) and insert it in either of the lower orifices of a submissive or bottom. The use of a condom during insertion is strongly advised because if the temperature of the ice is below freezing, sensitive membranes may stick to it and tear.

Ice-water enemas

Alternatively, some BDSM folk will use ice-water for enemas. See safety below.

Chains

Heavy, metal chains can be useful in ice play because the metal is going to be inherently cold anyway, and this can be made more extreme by storing the chains in a freezer before use.

Safety

It's important to note that inside the vagina or anus there is a rich flow of blood very close to the surface of the membranes therein. This means that the temperature of a quite a lot of blood can be reduced dramatically very quickly during ice play. Ice-water enemas are particular risks for this, and can lead to comas.
