The impact top should thoroughly wash their hands before a scene, and nitrile gloves are recommended. Implements should be cleaned between uses. This includes furniture the recipient may be touching, and tools used before and after the scene. Lack of cleanliness can result not only in skin infections, but can also lead to the transfer of diseases such as hepatitis. If you plan on breaking skin during the scene, sanitize the intended areas beforehand. If skin becomes broken, sanitize after and ensure the recipient does not sit on surfaces others have, or will, touch. Puppy pads or soft pants are a good way to prevent cross contamination while still keeping the recipient comfortable after the scene. | The impact top should thoroughly wash their hands before a scene, and nitrile gloves are recommended.

Take classes, watch others, practice on pillows. It will increase your accuracy and your confidence. Make sure you can use scourge-style tools without wrapping (ends of implement striking beyond the intended impact point). Be precise with all materials. | |||
=== Be prepared === | |||
Ensure your tools (including footwear if trampling) are clean and well-maintained. Be aware of your own ability to focus and observe, and knowledgeable about subspace and the body's reaction to pain.. Consumption of drugs or alcohol by either participant dramatically increases the risk of accidents or injury. | |||
=== Negotiate thoughtfully === | |||
Be thorough in your negotiation. Preexisting injuries, illnesses, and current medications may interfere with the impact recipient’s ability to clot, heal, breathe, gauge pain, or maintain consciousness under systemic stress. Be sure to ask about any health related concerns. | Be thorough in your negotiation.
