What if you could flip a switch and tap directly into the ancient wiring of the human nervous system to help ease anxiety, depression, mood swings, and mental fog?

By blending evolutionary psychology with pain gate theory, there’s a fascinating pathway into what many in the BDSM world call subspace: a deeply immersive state known for stress relief, emotional release, and heightened focus.

As featured on The Doctors, Spanker Miss Chris explores the science, psychology, and sensation behind “Spank Therapy,” revealing how consensual impact play can harness the body’s own chemistry to decompress, reconnect, and de-stress... with a deliciously kinky twist!

About Miss Chris

Miss Chris (she, her) is a switchy-pan-poly edge player, Professional Disciplinarian, certified life coach, webmaster, toymaker, and international BDSM educator. She founded the Sun Valley Spankos, now Spank University, back in Feb 2009, which melds the education from the BDSM world, with the party culture of the spanking community.

Miss Chris is proud to have presented in many countries like Italy, Canada, Ireland and Spain. MC has delivered fetish based workshops at vanilla conferences, too, including Darkcon, the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Councilors and Therapists (AASECT), and Mensa, and she has recently appeared on The Doctors TV show. She is appreciative of her opportunities to contribute to the Science of BDSM, to speak with mainstream media about spank therapy and to help raise consciousness of the BDSM lifestyle.

Miss Chris has been awarded twice, the DomCon Special Guest of Honor for her contributions to the professional lifestyle. On a personal level, she’s a Butchmann's Academy graduate and recurring presenter at her home club, the Arizona Power Exchange in Phoenix, AZ.
