Sensory deprivation is the deliberate reduction or removal of stimuli from one or more of the senses.

Simple devices such as blindfolds or hoods and earmuffs can cut off sight and hearing, while more complex devices can also cut off the sense of smell, touch, taste, thermoception (heat-sense), and the 'feeling' of gravity. Sensory deprivation has been used in various alternative medicines, psychological experiments, and in bondage situations.
