Well, for those of us into erotic choking, let me share the deets.
How come choking can be erotic?
Asphyxiation occurs when the brain is deprived of oxygenated blood. The common method is using hands to compress your throat. As the brain gets depleted, feelings of euphoria cloud your mind. Couples who explore choking have reported deeper sensations in their sexual organs when being intimate. For many people, the major stimulation arises from the power dynamic created.
An important tip before the grip
If your client suggests the choke, do not accept unless you think you will be comfortable with it. It rarely is worth it. If your client doesn’t suggest it and it is something that you find aids the process, you should suggest it. It might even be something he is into but was reluctant to disclose. It is okay if he doesn’t want to engage.
You should suggest a safe word that you have to obey. Maybe you can tell one of your confidants you are into erotic asphyxiation before you explore it with clients, in case something happens. Try to avoid engaging with unfamiliar clients.

Tools for different moods you have a chest of options. You can use hands, rope, plastic bags, cling-film water. You can see it keeps getting darker. Each method suits a different desire.
How to be safe with technique interspersed
