Japanese rope bondage is
well known world wide. Traditional Japanese rope torture was highly
ritualized and codified. It started with one loop at the wrist until
the whole body was bound using this one piece of rope. From this a
wide variety of positions and designs was created. Its restrictive use
was extremely painful and would often result in long-term nerve and
circulation damage or death. Its punishment was psychological too,
bending people into positions of humility, tightening around the neck
if the victim struggled and hanging prisoners suspended in positions
of complete helplessness. Traditionally highly abrasive straw rope was
used.
