The Effects of Extreme Pain Conditioning on Ticklish Responsivity in a Mummified Subject

Abstract

This study investigates the neurological crossover between extreme pain saturation and hyper-sensitization of tickle response in a highly conditioned adult female subject with a known affinity for pain submission. The subject, Skylar, was subjected to a progressive bastinado protocol while fully immobilized in an Immobilizer mummy bag, with toes restrained in plantar flexion for both safety and sensory amplification.

Despite self-reporting low baseline ticklishness, repeated exposure to escalating pain stimuli resulted in dramatic neuro-sensory transformation, culminating in heightened positive tickle responsiveness post-pain saturation. Results confirm that prolonged nociceptive bombardment of the plantar surface significantly lowers sensory thresholds, converting typically less ticklish individuals into hyper-reactive tickle subjects.

Methodology

Subject Profile

Name: Skylar Age: 28 Occupation: Deputy (Out-of-State) Pain Tolerance: Self-identified pain addict; experienced in BDSM, but new to experimenter Baseline Ticklishness: Reports “somewhat ticklish,” especially on feet Safeword Protocol: “Red” (established pre-testing)

Restraint Protocol

Full-body mummification in Immobilizer bag (nylon-webbing reinforced, full limb compression) Ankles secured with steel clamps to prevent movement All toes individually tied back into firm plantar flexion using surgical-grade cord Feet fully exposed, elevated 10° for optimal strike trajectory and post-impact observation

Instrument Progression (Ascending Intensity)

Riding Crop (Leather, Medium Weight) Starting at 30% power Gradual increase to 90% power Focus: Even distribution across metatarsals and heels Wooden Ruler (12”, Hard Maple) Applied with full forearm swing Target: Ball of foot and medial arch Leather Strap (2” Wide, 3/8” Thick, 24” Long) Maximum application, full-arm swing Audible impact recorded at 85–90 dB Sustained for post-heat buildup

Tickling Protocol (Post-Pain)

Short rest after safeword at 7:09 Second safeword triggered at 8:29, providing immediate transition to tickle testing Fingers (clean, warm, no oils) introduced with feather-light wiggling motion Focus: Center of sole, moving in circular, undulating patterns Observation: Respiratory shift, vocalization, flexion

Results

Gasp → heavy breathing → suppressed laughter → whimpering | Positive tickle response confirmed |

Neurological Observations

Pain-induced hyperesthesia: Repeated nociceptive input led to dermatomal hypersensitivity, particularly in tibial nerve distribution (S1–S2). Central sensitization: Spinal cord dorsal horn neurons likely entered a state of wind-up, lowering activation thresholds for mechanoreceptive Aβ fibers — typically responsible for light touch and tickle. Paradoxical pleasure-pain feedback loop: Subject exhibited orgasmic breathing patterns post-safeword, despite no genital contact — indicative of subcortical dopamine release common in extreme BDSM subspace.

Conclusion

This experiment confirms that extreme bastinado impact, when systematically administered under full immobilization, fundamentally alters sensory perception in the plantar region. Even individuals with low innate ticklishness become exquisitely tickle-reactive following sufficient pain conditioning.

The Immobilizer bag and toe flexion technique proved effective for both subject safety and sensory maximization. The dual-safeword protocol allows for proper tenderization of the soles, enabling reliable tickle testing.

Future studies should explore:

fMRI monitoring during post-pain tickling Dopamine and endorphin levels pre/post session Long-term sensory recalibration in pain-addicted submissives

Practical Application for Adults

For the BDSM, tickling, and bondage niche, this case demonstrates:

Immobilization + escalating pain = guaranteed tickle reactivity, even in "non-ticklish" subs Dual safeword use adds psychological tension and pacing Foot restraint and toe flexion enhance both safety and visual dominance Slow build + intense payoff structures are ideal for JOIs and tease content
