Mummification

Mummification is a form of full-body bondage. For speed and ease reasons, it is frequently done with plastic wrap (the sort used in kitchens). Dedicated enthusiasts will buy industrial-sized rolls of wrap.

A typical scenario involves the top, some assistants, and the bottom or submissive.

1. The top stands the bottom up straight,
2. The top then proceeds to wrap the plastic wrap around the bottom's entire body from the shoulders down to their feet,
3. During the latter stages of this the assistants will support the bottom to stop them falling over as their legs are wrapped together,
4. The bottom's head will usually be wrapped separately to the body. Importantly, the top must quickly open a hole in the wrap over the bottom's mouth and nose straight after wrapping the head to prevent the bottom suffocating,
5. If sexual play is envisaged, one or two other holes will be cut through the wrap, and
6. Once fully wrapped, the now-helpless bottom will be physically manhandled by the top and the assistants to a more convenient position (usually laying down).

Cautions

• Once partially or completely covered, the ability of the bottom's body to regulate its own temperature becomes dramatically impaired. They can quickly overheat,
• Mummification which is too tight can impair breathing, and
• Scissors are needed to cut the bottom free.

Variations

Instead of full-body mummification, some practitioners will use plastic wrap to only partially wrap their partner, such as only their upper body without enclosing the head.
