Suspension bondage is a form of sexual bondage where a bound person is hung from one or more overhead suspension points. Suspension bondage is considered to carry a higher risk than other forms of sexual bondage and there is much attention to safety.<ref name=TTS>{{cite web |last1=Tiziano |first1=Stephanos |last2=Tiziano |first2=Shay |title=Suspension 101 – Stefanos and Shay |url=https://www.stefanosandshay.com/classes/suspension101/ |website=www.stefanosandshay.com |access-date=2 October 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191002183535/https://www.stefanosandshay.com/classes/suspension101/ |archive-date=2 October 2019 |url-status=live }}</ref>

In ''partial suspension'' the person is bound in a way that part of their body weight is held by suspension ropes, cables or chains. The classic partial suspension position is to have the person balancing on one foot with part of their weight supported through a chest harness and the other leg pulled up in some direction. A person lying on their upper back with legs tied upwards to a suspension point to pull their lower back off the ground would also qualify as partial suspension.

In ''full suspension'' the person is completely supported by suspension ropes, cables or [[chain]]s, and they have no contact with the ground. The position of the person's body in a full suspension may be horizontal, vertical or inverted; it is only limited by their endurance and the skill of the binder.

A small group practise ''self-suspension''.<ref name=TTS/>
