Choosing and Using Nipple Clamps


Nipple Clamps are designed to pinch the nipples. It’s always a good idea to test the clamps on the skin of the inner wrist or the webbing between the thumb and forefinger, to get an accurate “reading” of the level of intensity. If it’s tolerable there, they should be fine for other, more delicate areas! Oh, and they can be shared by men and women alike!

Want to know what they feel like? Well, the best way to do that is try them out on yourself before ever using them on your partner… who knows? You might just give yourself an unexpected thrill, too!

Try starting with adjustable clamps to find the right tension, like the Spartacus Adjustable Nipple Clamps.

But seriously, nipple clamps can cause the most exquisite sensations… merging pain with pleasure and creating an invisible, direct link between one’s nipples and nether regions. Just the application of the clamps alone is a highly erotic experience, causing one to focus only on every sensation being absorbed by the body. Senses are heightened and awareness is intensified. It’s truly an experience like no other!

Jaw clamps allow a firm grip, try the Spartacus Wide Jaw Adjustable Nipple Clamps.

Whether you just want to heighten your sexual experience or introduce a little pain with your pleasure, clamps are definitely an asset to any sexual repertoire!

There are different types of clamps that work in various ways:

“Japanese” clover clamps, such as the Spartacus Endurance Butterfly Clamps, are curved spring mechanisms that close when released after being squeezed open. Rubber covered tips which make direct contact on the nipples. They can’t be adjusted and are prone to clamping down very tightly… their grip can be further enhanced with the addition of a chain strung between them.

Tweezers clamps, such as the Spartacus – Purple Beaded Nipple Clamps – Tweezer Style , are matchstick-thin tweezers with small rubber coverings on the tips and a sliding ring that allows adjustment of the tightness. They work great for a variety of nipple sizes.

Here’s a small sampling of clamps to consider:

If you have trouble grasping or holding on to the nipples, be sure to do whatever is necessary to get them fully hard before beginning. You can also wipe them with rubbing alcohol or grasp the nipple with a soft cloth or tissue rather than your bare fingers. Be sure to seat the clamp fully on the nipple before pulling on it.

Nipple clamps definitely reduce circulation, so for safety sake, do NOT use them for more than fifteen minutes at a time. Release them immediately if there are any signs of coldness, numbness or discoloration. Releasing the clamp hurts more than placing it in the first place. If you want to reduce the sudden pain, you can squeeze the tips of your fingers onto clamped area as you release the clamps. This pressure slows the blood return, which eases the sudden fierceness of the pain.

Be sure to always pay close attention to your partners reactions… not just vocalizations but also body language. You know your partner better than anyone, Play safe and have fun!
