The application can be varied, as can the location of such abrasive materials. Generally it is done in a manner so as to not break the skin, however in such event disinfection is important.

Various articles are used in such role playing. This can be from household items such as steel wool, sandpaper, or other rough surfaced items. It can also include various leaves, or sticks with rough surfaces.
