Dream Bondage Device - Human Footrest Restraints

Another device (well, a particular combination of devices) that has shown up in my dreams is a restraint system used to hold a sub in an uncomfortable position that is prime for use as an ottoman/footrest. 

I can draw some sketches if people request that but at the same time I tend to enjoy the exercise of visualizing something based upon a textual description.  Everyone seems to come up with their own unique interpretation and that is often way more fun than spoiling it with a drawing.

The basic premise is a T-shaped metal frame that lays on the ground.  The single leg of the T locks directly to the front ring of a collar.  The cross of the T acts as a spreader bar and the ankles are locked to each end.  To complete the restraint the hands are pulled down between the legs and each wrist is locked to the frame near the intersection of the single leg and cross of the T. 

In this position the sub would be on his knees with his legs forcibly spread, butt up in the air, his hands pulled down even with his ankles, and his face pressed against the ground.

The sub could either have his head or rear facing the chair, depending upon the Domme's preferences.

  1. Sounds like a nice design, especially for paddling. As a footrest, I'd suggest one addition. How about an adjustable (up and down) piece of metal or pipe with about an 8" crosspiece on top of it that's located at the intersection of the cross and straight part of the T that can be ratcheted upwards to the groin to supply a rather uncomfortable support of the sub's middle area. This would prevent any slumping on the part of the sub and allow for virtually limitless footrest time.

  2. Thank you, Lady Grey.

    Something like that hasn't shown up in dreams involving this particular restraint but it has in other devices, although now that I have a mental picture of it, it may just show up in future dreams.

    I would agree that would make it a much more menacing and effective system. Your thoughts seem to have a lot in common with one of my Ex's (that's not a bad thing). I guess a follow up question would be, would you prefer if the tip of the pipe was blunt or pointed?

    I will try to write about the dream device that had a similar feature.

  3. I would say blunt if the sub were to be kept in this position for a great many hours, and pointed if just for an hour or so.

    Now that I think about it, if I were on a chair or sofa and the sub placed parallel to the chair or sofa (perpendicular to my feet), I'd be annoyed if the sub's body weren't relatively flat on top. This would require another of those ratcheting devices, this one placed under his chest, which would also require a longer chain from his collar to the O ring on the base. With two ratcheting devices now in place, you'd have a perfect footrest. For simple paddling, I'd go back to your original design.

  4. So a modular design would probably work best in this case. I'm guessing something like this could be whipped up fairly easily by someone with metal-working skills. While a ratcheted or hydraulic based discomfort rod is definitely a very intriguing mental picture I have a feeling any early prototypes would probably have a sleeve and inner tube with holes that is held up by a locking pin.

    The rod under the chest is another good idea if you want a flatter back surface. My Mistress I was with when I had the dream had a thing for subs touching their foreheads to the ground while kneeling/bowing and I found myself in this position quite common.

    Extreme restraints has a stockade with a fixed height locking collar which is somewhat similar but the hands are out in front rather than near the ankles:

    This also holds a similar position but I have found out from experience that it's quite a bit more uncomfortable to have the hands on the inside of the ankles rather than the outside if you are going to have any weight supported by your face.

    Thanks again for the comments.
